Roketsan is showcasing variants of its Mini Akıllı Mühimmat (MAM) smart micro munition as the ideal solution for emerging requirements for light weapons to be used from UAVs.
There is increasing interest for such munitions which can be effectively used over the course of reconnaissance and surveillance missions and are especially useful in engaging time critical targets. MAM variants also offer the advantage of reduced collateral damage due to its precision guidance system and option of high explosive fragmentation war- head or tandem high energy anti-tank warhead (for use against armoured platforms).
MAM-T Munition was developed for unmanned aerial vehicles and light attack aircraft for use in critical air/ground missions. With its fixed wing structure and improved warhead,MAM-T provides the user with high strike precision and efficiency against fixed and mobile targets at longer ranges.
System Specifications
• Destruction of Static and Mobile Targets through High Strike Precisions
• High Blast Fragmentation Warhead Developed in Accordance with UAV Operational Concepts
• Increased Range through Wing Addition
• High Destructive Power
• Against Critical Aerial Targets

Roketsan is also looking at marketing the UAV-230 which can operate day and night. It is an effective weapon used against stationary land and sea targets, air defence radar and communication systems, lightly armoured land or sea vehicles, critical facilities such as command centres, personnel, and targets of opportunity.
Its operational range is 150+ kilometres, depending on the speed and altitude at which the missile is released. Equipped with a fragmentation warhead, the UAV-230 uses different versions of this warhead against different target types. The system is readied for its mission after completion of the firing preparation process before leaving the UAV. After being released from the UAV, it falls freely in the air for a certain period and autonomously ignites the solid fuel engine.
The UAV-230 is guided precisely to the target thanks to its GNSS-supported inertial guidance capability, which provides a countermeasure against jamming systems. The system functions with a fire-and-forget capability. It offers the user the opportunity to use it for critical missions without infiltrating deep into enemy positions.
