Erdoğan: Turkey’s cruise and ballistic missile potential will be strengthened

Turkey’s air defense system (HHM) will be strengthened, and its cruise and ballistic missile potential will increase.

“Elchi” reports that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan wrote this on his “X” social media account regarding the missile systems delivered to the Armed Forces by ROKETSAN.

“These investments will strengthen our air defense system and increase our strategic power,” the Turkish President wrote, adding that the cruise and ballistic missile potential will also increase:

“With these systems, which constitute the firepower of the “Iron Dome,” reaching a higher production pace, the production of air defense systems will be further strengthened.”

According to him, this new infrastructure established for Turkey’s critical air defense systems, strategic missile projects, and smart ammunition supply will strengthen the army.

It should be noted that on April 7, the list of missile systems delivered to the country’s Armed Forces by Turkey’s defense industry company ROKETSAN was announced.
