From the name and appearance of the TRG-230-IHA missile, it can be assumed that it is probably an adapted version of the Turkish TRG-230 surface-to-surface missile for air-launch use. The new missiles will significantly expand the combat capabilities of the Akinci drone, in particular, for high-precision destruction of important objects at significant distances without the need to enter the enemy's air defense zone.
The TRG-230 ground-launch missiles are used in Turkish multiple rocket launchers. The missile provides a target strike range of up to 70 km.
