What's new

SOM-B2 cruise missile's development, ground and flight tests have been completed.

it used to use tr-40 french engine, but Turkey developed its own engine for it called kj-3200 i think.

being able to sell it to Azerbaijan also show that there is no foreign piece in this missile...
great, did they published the specs of engine or it's unknown??
 
great, do you know which engine it uses??

Its engine is Turkish made KTJ-3200, this engine will be used in other turkish made cruise missiles too.

Just curiosity Does Pakistan uses its own engines in Babur and raad? Otherwise We can see a partnership in engines maybe...

TR 40 has 2.5-3.3 kn power. from the name of the Turkish engine we can expect that it has 3.2 kn power. It can also work for an hour, which mean with additional fuel, it can go further.. definitely has around 400-500km range

It is a source of pride for the Turkish defense industry that the SOM missile program, which has almost 20 years history, has become a system that can compete with all the equivalent best products in the world today. Also the accumulation of this program has helped to uncover many other types of ammunition.

The next stop will be the GEZGİN missile, which will gives +1000 kilometers of engagement possibility to the Turkish Navy.
 
Can it be used as AShM?

SOM-C1/C2 variant will be air launchable anti-ship cruise missiles optimized to strike moving naval targets. Those variants will provide advanced sea-skimming and zigzag maneuvring capability similar to Atmaca SSM.

SOM-J is the new compact missile of this family offering smaller mass weight while reaching long ranges(270+km). Akinci drone will be able to fire SOM-J cruise missiles to neutralize mostly enemy SAM stations.


SOM-B2 has modified tandem penetrator warhead called NEB developed by Tubitak Sage. NEB core warhead is applied to Aselsan LGK and Tubitak HGK guided bombs before. Results on trials was impressive.
