Stand-Off Missile (SOM)
SOM is an air-to-surface Cruise Missile with turbojet engine designed to be used against heavily defended land and sea surface targets.
SOM provides the capability of destroying designated military targets with high accuracy with the launching aircraft remaining outside the effective range of hostile air defence systems.
SOM-A and SOM-B1 have been in Turkish Air Forces (TurAF) service since 2011. Work for developing other variants, SOM-B2 which has Dual Stage Tandem Penetrating Warhead and SOM-C1 & SOM-C2 which have ASuW and datalink capability, are ongoing.
Missiles from the SOM Missile Family have a range of 250+ kilometers. Developed to fit the F-35’s internal weapons station, the SOM-J has a range of 270+ kilometers.
The mass production of the SOM Missile, developed by TUBITAK-SAGE, is carried out by Roketsan.

No more Safran engines, Turkey puts its own on cruise missiles
Turkey solved a serious problem that prevented the export of weapons systems. The first Turkish cruise missile was powered by Safran's French TR40 engine.
