ROKETSAN displays the 2.75” Laser Guided Missile so called “CIRIT” a unique all-up round missile designed to eliminate light armored, stationary/moving opportunity targets with high precision and affordable cost. CIRIT, designed as the main weapon system of T-129 ATAK Turkish attack helicopter, is integrated and used by AH-1W Cobra helicopter, AT-802 Arc Angel Border Pantatrol Aircraft and on EC635 Light Combat Helicopter.

CIRIT is also integrated on vehicle mounted weapon stations, autonomous stationary/mobile weapon platforms, stabilized naval weapon platforms for patrol boats and Tactical UAV. Combat proven CIRIT is the first of its caliber to be delivered to different Allied Armed Forces inventory under serial production contract. Easy integration, long range with 8 km, MEMS Based IMU, restriction-free components, Type V Insensitive Munitions characteristics for Warhead and Rocket Motor against Bullet Impact and Liquid Fluid Fire, Smart Launcher with various configurations depending on the requirements of the customer minimum logistics is highlights of CIRIT. ROKETSAN and MBDA Deutschland has signed an agreement to cooperate on CIRIT for the requirements of EC665 TIGER Combat Helicopter (UH-TIGER) in the inventory of German Armed Forces, Bundeswehr.

The CIRIT has been successfully delivered to the Turkish Armed Forces in 2012, is in series production and will equip the Turkish Army's attack helicopters. Roketsan has also won a contract from the UAE to sell the CIRIT system, worth $196.2 million, making the Emirati Army the first foreign customer for system.

Long Range Antitank Missile, “MIZRAK-U”

     
Long Range Antitank Missile, “MIZRAK-U” is an weapon system capable of operating in all weather and day/night conditions with “Fire and Forget” and “Fire and Update” modes with a maximum range of 8 km. MIZRAK-U with the flexibility provided by its Lock-On-Before Launch, Lock-On-After-Launch, Lock-On-Update capabilities, offers extensive firing capabilities to targets behind the mask position with adjustable hit point and enabling damage assesment.

MIZRAK-U, defined as the official antitank system of the T-129 ATAK Turkish attack helicopter, can be integrated on various platforms such as helicopter, UAV, land vehicle, stationary platform, Light Assault Aircraft, naval platforms. MIZRAK-U comes in two versions, primary version is equipped with Laser Seeker and the follow-up version will home an Imaging Infra-red Seeker. Both are equipped with state of the art technologies making it effective against all armoured threats of the modern battlefield. The laser version of MIZRAK-U and CIRIT use the common launcher and designation properties which enables combining both systems in the same configuration for optimized solution. CIRIT and MIZRAK-U, defined as the official missile systems of the National Attack Helicopter (T – 129, can be integrated to various platforms (Helicopter, UAV, Land Vehicle, Stationary Platform, Light Assault Aircraft, Naval Platform). MIZRAK-U and CIRIT use the common launcher which enables combining both systems in the same configuration for customized solutions. Mizrak-LU will be delivered to Turkish Land Forces by the end of this year.

A next generation weapon system, Stand-Off Missile “SOM” system is the family cruise missile, with complex guidance technologies and warheads designed to enhance the air-to-surface warfare capabilities of fighter aircraft. SOM is an autonomous, long range (250 km), low observable, high precision, all weather, air to surface new generation cruise missile to be used against highly defended, anti-access and high value stationary and moving land/surface (ASuW) targets.

Under serial production, SOM is already in the inventory of the Turkish Air Force (TAF), integrated and certified on the F-4E/2020 and F-16 Block40 fighter aircraft platforms. Due to the common requirements of Turkish Air Force and JSF (F-35) program, SOM has been offered as a modern anti-surface cruise missile for newly developed F-35 JSF fighter aircraft. ROKETSAN has also signed a cooperation agreement with Airbus Defence & Space to study the integration of SOM on the Eurofighter TYPHOON and possible future platforms. Roketsan and Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control signed an agreement in 2014 for collaboration on the SOM-J, a new generation air-to-surface Stand-Off Cruise Missile for the F-35 aircraft.

The companies will jointly develop, produce, market, sell and support SOM-J for internal carriage on F-35 aircraft or external carriage on other aircraft. All the firing tests successfully accomplished, SOM will be delivered to Turkish Air Force by the end of this year.
