The KHAN Missile took its place in the TAF inventory as a system that “is reassuring for our allies and spreads fear among our enemies”, providing long-range precision strike capability against:
- Targets located with high accuracy
- Artillery and air defence systems,
- Radar sites,
- Assembly areas,
- Logistic facilities,
- C3 Facilities and
- Other high priority targets.
The 610 mm-diameter KHAN Missile is capable of destroying targets at ranges of up to 280 km, and can be launched from the KHAN Weapon System and the Multi-Barrel Rocket Launcher (MBRL) produced by Roketsan. In line with user requirements, Roketsan can integrate the missile into the other Tactical Wheeled Vehicle platforms with integration-compatible interfaces.
