TRLG-122 is a laser-guided, surface-to-surface rocket system developed by Roketsan in response to the high-precision requirements of modern battlefields. Capable of achieving rapid firing readiness, this system enables precise point strikes against priority targets. The TRLG-122 can be launched from the T-122 Sakarya Multiple Rocket Launcher (MRL) platform and, unlike conventional rocket systems, achieves high hit accuracy through a laser seeker head and advanced navigation capabilities.


TRLG-122 is a 122 mm diameter, laser-guided munition compatible with the T-122 Sakarya system, with a range of 13 to 30 kilometers. As a variant of the TRG-122 rocket, it is guided by a Laser Seeker Head (LSH) and an Inertial Navigation System (INS). During the terminal phase, it homes in on laser-designated targets using laser guidance, achieving engagement with minimal deviation. Thanks to GPS (Global Positioning System) aided navigation, it can operate effectively even under electronic warfare conditions.

Guidance and Control System

The rocket operates using a two-stage guidance structure. During flight, it employs INS and GPS-aided navigation; during the terminal phase, the LSH activates to direct the rocket toward laser-designated targets. Control is achieved through electro-mechanically actuated aerodynamic surfaces. It delivers high precision with a maximum Circular Error Probable (CEP) of 2 meters.

Warhead and Effect

The TRLG-122 warhead is a fragmentation type equipped with steel balls and high explosive effect. Weighing 13.5 kg, this warhead increases target damage with an effect radius of at least 40 meters. It is fitted with a dual-mode fuze capable of both impact and proximity detonation.
