Turkey unveils Yıldırımhan liquid-fueled long-range ballistic missile propellant

Turkey claims a breakthrough in domestically producing UDMH/N2O4 liquid propellants and integrating them into the Yıldırımhan long-range ballistic missile program. If validated in upcoming field tests, this would represent a new indigenous liquid-fueled, hypersonic-speed missile capability with very long range and heavy payload, potentially altering regional deterrence dynamics.
