A new missile system from Turkey aims to confuse radar-guided attacks, enhancing the defensive capabilities of its ships.

Developed by state-owned Makine ve Kimya Endüstrisi (MKE), the 130mm system called BALKIN carries “special particles” that disperse in the air once the missile is detonated.

These particles form a dense cloud with “high radar reflectivity,” aiming to mislead radio-frequency homing missiles and prevent them from accurately striking naval platforms.
