Turkey's first domestically developed surface-to-surface cruise missile, the Kara Atmaca, successfully destroyed its target at maximum range during a test firing, striking with high precision. According to TRT Haber, the test has proven the system's maximum-range capability in practical, concrete terms.
The Kara Atmaca is an adaptation of the Atmaca missile — originally developed for maritime targets — reconfigured for surface-to-surface use. The Atmaca family sits among the strategic systems designed in line with Turkey's indigenization and national self-sufficiency goals in the defense industry.
The successful test is being regarded as a critical milestone in diversifying Turkey's domestic cruise missile inventory and enhancing the land forces' long-range precision-strike capability. Defense officials confirmed the firing achieved a direct hit. No official announcement has yet been made regarding the system's serial production or inventory integration timeline.
