Synopsis
The TRG-230 missile is designed to be used against high-priority targets within a range of 20–70 km. It can be launched from the Roketsan Multi-Barrel Rocket Launcher and other platforms with compatible interfaces.[2][3]
Variants
TRLG-230
The TRLG-230 has an additional seeker for laser guidance. It can hit targets marked by UAVs and UCAVs. Its CEP is less than two meters.[4]
TRG-230-İHA
The TRG-230-İHA is an air-to-surface version that is launched from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV; Turkish: İHA). After release from a UAV, it free-falls for a while, then autonomously ignites its solid propellant engine.[5] It has an effective range of 20 to 150 kilometers,[6] depending on the height and speed at which it is launched.[5] Roketsan released a video on 16 December 2022 announcing that a Bayraktar Akıncı UCAV made the first test launch, hitting the target with precision from 100 kilometers away.[6][7] The second test launch, from an Akıncı three months later, hit a target from 140 kilometers.[8]
