Tactical Ballistic Missile
A tactical ballistic missile (TBM), or battlefield range ballistic missile (BRBM), is a ballistic missile designed for short-range battlefield use. Typically, range (aeronautics), range is less than . Tactical ballistic missiles are usually mobile to ensure survivability and quick deployment, as well as carrying a variety of warheads to target enemy facilities, assembly areas, artillery, and other targets behind the front lines. Warheads can include conventional high explosive, Chemical warfare, chemical, Biological warfare, biological, or nuclear warheads. Typically tactical nuclear weapons are limited in their total yield compared to strategic nuclear weapons. Design Tactical ballistic missiles fill the gap between conventional rocket artillery and longer-range short-range ballistic missiles. Tactical missiles can carry heavy payloads deep behind enemy lines in comparison to rockets or gun artillery, while having better mobility and less expense than the more strategic thea ...

Tayfun (missile)
Tayfun (''Typhoon'') is a Short-range ballistic missile developed on the basis of the Bora (missile) by Turkish state-owned Roketsan. It is Turkey's first missile of its kind. Turkey accidentally revealed the Typhon during a test launch on October 20, 2022. Design and production Since Tayfun was developed secretly, there is no information about its design period. Although the characteristics of the missile were unknown, it was later announced by the Ministry of National Defense. During the first test, Tayfun hit its target from a distance of 561 kilometers in a duration of 456 seconds. Tayfun was successfully tested again on 23 May 2023 and right after entered mass production on 29 May 2023. In a test conducted in Rize, a city on the Black Sea coast of Türkiye, on February 3, 2025, Tayfun successfully hit a target on the sea, hundreds of kilometers away. Hit accuracy was 5 meters.

Weapons And Ammunition Introduced In 2017
A weapon, arm, or armament is any implement or device that is used to deter, threaten, inflict physical damage, harm, or kill. Weapons are used to increase the efficacy and efficiency of activities such as hunting, crime (e.g., murder), law enforcement, self-defense, warfare, or suicide. In a broader context, weapons may be construed to include anything used to gain a tactical, strategic, material, or mental advantage over an adversary or enemy target. While ordinary objects such as rocks and bottles can be used as weapons, many objects are expressly designed for the purpose; these range from simple implements such as clubs and swords to complicated modern firearms, tanks, missiles and biological weapons. Something that has been repurposed, converted, or enhanced to become a weapon of war is termed ''weaponized'', such as a weaponized virus or weaponized laser. History The use of weapons has been a major driver of cultural evolution and human history up to today since w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Surface-to-surface Missiles Of Turkey
A surface-to-surface missile (SSM) is a missile designed to be launched from the ground or the sea and strike targets on land or at sea. They may be fired from hand-held or vehicle mounted devices, from fixed installations, or from a ship. They are often powered by a rocket engine or sometimes fired by an explosive charge, since the launching platform is typically stationary or moving slowly. They usually have fins and/or wings for lift and stability, although hyper-velocity or short-ranged missiles may use body lift or fly a ballistic trajectory. The first operational surface-to-surface missile was the V-1 flying bomb, it was powered by a pulsejet engine. Contemporary surface-to-surface missiles are usually guided. An unguided surface-to-surface missile is usually referred to as a rocket (for example, an RPG-7 or M72 LAW is an anti-tank rocket), whereas a BGM-71 TOW or AT-2 Swatter is an anti-tank guided missile. Examples of surface-to-surface missile include the MGM-140 ATACMS ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
