On March 28, 2023, Marlin conducted a test launch with the Kuzgun-KY missile developed by TÜBİTAK SAGE, but this was a single missile launch and did not have a multiple launcher system.
Now, the Marlin Armed Unmanned Marine Vehicle will be able to fire 8 Kuzgun missiles simultaneously by integrating the launcher system.
TÜBİTAK SAGE is developing three different modular missiles in the KUZGUN program; Solid Fuel (KY), Turbojet Engine (TJ) and Free Floating (SS) configurations.
The Kuzgun KY model fired by Marlin SİDA increases the strategic deterrence of the platform by offering a range of approximately 20 kilometers (12.4 miles).
KUZGUN-KY Missile weighs 75 kg and can carry a warhead weighing approximately 10 kg.
The Kuzgun missile system carried by Marlin consists of a missile family developed by Tubitak Sage that can be fired from land, sea and air platforms.
