TEBER Guidance Kit from Turkey's Roketsan for Bangladeshi Chengdu F-7BG Jets

Turkey’s Roketsan will provide TEBER Guidance Kit to be equipped on Chinese-made F-7BG jets being built for Bangladesh.

Dhaka has procured TRG-300 and TRG-230 missiles from Roketsan. It recently became the first export customer for TEBER Guidance Kits.

The plan to integrate TEBER with Bangladesh’s F-7BG began in August 2019. Since the Chengdu aircraft did not have the ability to drop the Turkish smart bomb, the process took time, reports SavunmaSanayiST.com.

The   Air Force inventory includes more than 30 F / T-7BG fighter jets.

Roketsan then developed the S-Kit which is capable of intelligently distinguishing the ammunition attached to the aircraft.

After the integration studies and tests were completed, the kits were delivered to Bangladesh.

Roketsan TEBER, MK-81 and MK-82 general purpose bombs designed to increase the impact capability; air-to-land Inertial Measurement Unit (IPB), Global Positioning System (CGS) and / or Semi Active Laser Seeker Head (LAB) supported by the precise CEP (deviation) is a laser guidance kit.

TEBER tail section consists of Inertial Measurement Unit (IMP) and Spherical Positioning System (GCS) to provide precise guidance and can be integrated into the bomb very quickly by the user in the field. The liners on the bomb body provide stability and buoyancy as well as high maneuverability in the terminal guidance phase.

The semi-active Laser Seeker Cap (LAB), which can be attached to the nose of the bombs at any time, gives the weapon system precise precision against moving targets. There is also the option to add a proximity sensor to the Laser Seeker Head (LAB) section, so that the warhead can be used effectively by adjusting the height at which the bomb will explode according to target types and user request. In addition, the tail section provides logistical convenience to the user with the ability to recognize the bombs to which it is integrated.

Also TEBER, Turkey with deviation below 3 meters and is among the world's most accurate guidance kits.

The Bangladesh air force (BAF) has  16 F-7BGIs of which entered service in 2013. The F-7BGI is one of the most advanced variants, and the last production model of the F-7/J-7 family.

Additiion of the TEBER pods means The BAF is intent on increasing the fighting capability of the aircraft.
