BAKU — At the 6th Azerbaijan International Defence Exhibition (ADEX 2026) at the Baku Expo Center (September 30 – October 2, 2026), Turkish defense leader Roketsan displayed its comprehensive inventory of precision-guided munitions, standoff cruise missiles, and air-launched strike weapons. Operating as the main event sponsor, Roketsan emphasized multi-domain integration spanning air, land, and naval warfare applications tailored for NATO and regional allied armed forces.
The showcase highlighted key offensive and defensive strike assets, including the ATMACA anti-ship cruise missile, the SOM standoff cruise missile, the İHA-122 air-launched supersonic missile, and the battle-proven MAM family of smart micro-munitions. These platforms demonstrate Roketsan’s focus on high-velocity standoff strike, network-centric data-link coordination, and modular seeker integration across manned and unmanned combat architectures.
