By starting an engagement from the command control system, the missile was fired automatically at the optimum moment with the fire control system. The missile was guided to the target using radar data. Approaching the target with terminal guidance seeker, the missile accurately hit the target by exact calculation of guidance system and warhead was the detonated.

Tübitak SAGE developed the highly effective warhead used at the tests, within the scope of HİSAR projects.

The system performance was proven with these tests for the HİSAR projects that were fully developed by national and domestic means, ensuring significant achievements for air defence.

Among the targets of the systems developed to meet our country’s air defence requirements are, rotary and fixed wing air platofrms, various missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

Roketsan and Aselsan work in collaboration with over 100 national business partners to ensure that National Air Defence System which will be taking on crucial tasks in Turkey’s air defence, HİSAR, enters the inventory and to meet the requirements of Turkish Armed Forces.
