Istanbul, Turkey – The Tayfun ballistic missile, the most powerful ever developed by the Turkish defense industry, is among the main protagonists of the IDEF 2025 – 17th International Defense Industry Fairwhich takes place from 22 to 27 July at the Istanbul Expo Center.
Classified as Balistic missile short -range (SRBM)Tayfun is the first Turkish national system to reach this category, with an estimated range between 300 and 1000 kilometers.
The missiles with a range of less than 300 km are considered tactical (TBM), while those in the upper band are classified as SRBM. The project is developed by ROKETSANresponsible for all critical components such as engine, propellant and driving system.

Tayfun launch tests continue to be sustained. Last February, during an exercise at the airport of Rize-Artvinthe missile struck a target at sea precisely, marking the third successful test of the platform.
With these performances, the Tayfun consolidates as the greater range of ballistic missile ever produced in Türkiye. According to sources in the sector, the next phase of the program provides for the development of Missile Cenkwhich will further expand the country’s strategic skills.
Hypersonic speed and resistance to electronic war
Designed to evade the air defense systems, the Tayfun reaches hypersonic speeds and has high impact precision, minimizing collateral damage. The rapid preparation capacity at launch allows the system to be repositioned in a short time, increasing tactical flexibility.
Another strong point is his Resistance to electronic war. The missile is equipped with systems that protect navigation from interference in GPS signals, ensuring reliable operation during the day and night, in any climatic condition.
