Roketsan integrates Cirit 70mm laser guided missile launcher onto Toyota Hilux

At the SAHA 2024 exhibition, Roketsan showcased its innovative Cirit 70 mm laser-guided missile, mounted on the robust eighth-generation Toyota Hilux. This new military configuration offers a cost-effective solution for modern asymmetric warfare, providing enhanced mobility and firepower. The Hilux's durability and reliability make it a preferred choice for military forces and insurgents alike. With a turret carrying four Cirit missiles and an advanced Aselsan Karakurt EO/IR system for precise target acquisition, this setup represents a significant advancement in tactical vehicle technology. The Cirit missile, equipped with multiple warhead options, bridges the gap between unguided rockets and expensive guided systems, proving its versatility in various conflicts. As demand grows for flexible military solutions, Roketsan's integration of the Cirit missile onto a civilian pickup truck highlights the shift towards affordable combat systems in regions like Africa and the Middle East.
