Tayfun Block-3 Explained: Turkey's New Naval Strike Capability | Firstpost America | N18G

Turkey's TAYFUN Block-3 ballistic missile is making global headlines after successfully destroying a moving sea target during a historic Black Sea test. Developed by Turkish defence giant Roketsan, the hypersonic anti-ship ballistic missile used an advanced seeker head to track and strike a manoeuvring unmanned surface vessel with what officials called 'surgical precision.' The test marks Turkey's first successful integration of seeker technology into a ballistic missile and places it among a select group of nations with advanced anti-ship ballistic missile capabilities. The breakthrough comes as Turkey also unveils the longer-range TAYFUN Block-4, signalling major ambitions in hypersonic missile technology, naval warfare and strategic deterrence. Cary Johnston brings you the details on Firstpost America.
