On 26 October 2026, ASELSAN announced that its KGK-84 winged guidance kit had completed its first qualification range firing from an F-16 at the Sinop firing range on Turkey&rsquo;s Black Sea coast.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Qualification firings are the step between development testing and a weapon the customer can buy. TURDEF reports that the shot moves the ASELSAN KGK-84 further towards serial production. ASELSAN did not say how far the bomb flew this time or from what height it was released, but its own video shows the round striking a floating target at sea, and Turkish daily Sabah reported a direct hit.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f4f6f9;border:1px solid #e2e7ee;padding:18px 22px;margin:22px 0 26px\"><p style=\"margin:0 0 8px;font-weight:700;color:#0d1117\">Quick Facts<\/p><ul style=\"margin:0;padding-left:18px\"><li style=\"margin:4px 0\"><strong>System:<\/strong> ASELSAN KGK-84 winged guidance kit<\/li><li style=\"margin:4px 0\"><strong>Milestone:<\/strong> First qualification range firing, announced 26 October 2026<\/li><li style=\"margin:4px 0\"><strong>Launch aircraft:<\/strong> Turkish F-16<\/li><li style=\"margin:4px 0\"><strong>Range:<\/strong> Sinop firing range, Black Sea coast<\/li><li style=\"margin:4px 0\"><strong>Bombs:<\/strong> 2,000 lb class: Mk-84, Mk-84-T, NEB, NEB-T<\/li><li style=\"margin:4px 0\"><strong>Reach:<\/strong> Up to 100 km from an F-16, unpowered (ASELSAN)<\/li><li style=\"margin:4px 0\"><strong>Guidance:<\/strong> INS plus satellite navigation, CRPA anti-jam antenna<\/li><li style=\"margin:4px 0\"><strong>Earlier tests:<\/strong> First live drop December 2025; development test April 2026<\/li><\/ul><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"max-width:550px;margin:0 auto 28px\"><iframe class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?id=2114699440090992804&theme=light\" style=\"width:100%;height:560px;border:none;overflow:hidden\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">A dumb bomb that glides<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>The idea is simple and powerful. The KGK-84 bolts onto ordinary 2,000 lb-class bombs: the Mk-84 general-purpose bomb, the Mk-84-T, and the NEB and NEB-T penetrators. After release, a wing assembly unfolds and the bomb glides towards its target instead of falling on a ballistic arc.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>That turns a free-fall weapon into a stand-off one. According to ASELSAN, an F-16 can reach targets up to 100 km away with the kit, which lets the jet strike from outside the reach of many enemy air defences. The kit has no engine, which keeps the cost down.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px;width:100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/afterburner\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/10\/kgk-84-guidance-kit-turkish-f-16-hangar-aselsan.jpg\" alt=\"A KGK-84 winged guidance kit mounted under the wing of a Turkish Air Force F-16 inside a hangar with a Turkish flag\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;max-width:100%;display:block\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">A KGK-84 test round under the wing of a Turkish Air Force F-16, from ASELSAN&rsquo;s October 2026 video. The kit converts Mk-84-class bombs into glide weapons. Video still: ASELSAN<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Guidance comes from an integrated inertial navigation system paired with satellite positioning. A controlled reception pattern antenna (CRPA) helps it resist GNSS jamming, and the bomb can follow pre-programmed waypoints and hit at a selectable impact angle, day or night and in any weather. ASELSAN&rsquo;s published figures, cited by TURDEF, give a circular error probable of less than 10 metres. The kit also complies with MIL-STD-1760, the standard electrical and data interface between a combat aircraft and its smart weapons.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">Three tests in ten months<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>The 26 October firing is not the kit&rsquo;s first trip off an F-16. In December 2025 ASELSAN released video of the KGK-84&rsquo;s first live drop test, in which it scored a direct hit on a defined maritime target after following waypoints from long range. According to TURDEF, ASELSAN&rsquo;s January 2026 bulletin said the bomb was released at 37,000 feet and Mach 0.87 and flew more than 80 km.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f8f9fa;border-left:4px solid #d32f2f;padding:20px 22px;margin:18px 0 24px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.7\"><div><em>&ldquo;Our guidance kits developed with national engineering power have once again confirmed the determination and technological competence of the Turkish defense industry in the field.&rdquo;<\/em><div style=\"margin-top:10px;font-size:14px;color:#555\"><strong>Haluk G&ouml;rg&uuml;n<\/strong> &mdash; Head of Turkey&rsquo;s Presidency of Defence Industries (SSB), after the first live drop test, December 2025 (via T&uuml;rkiye Today)<\/div><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>A second development test followed in April 2026.

The KGK-82 and KGK-83, for 500 lb and 1,000 lb weapons, are in service. The KGK-84 extends the same concept to the 2,000 lb class, the weight TURDEF says is needed against fixed and hardened targets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>For the <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/air-forces\/turkish-air-force\/\">Turkish Air Force<\/a>, that means heavy stand-off strike from its F-16 fleet using bombs it already holds, without buying expensive powered missiles for every target. ASELSAN chief executive Ahmet Akyol called the kit a game-changer when the first live drop was announced, pointing to its long range for one-ton munitions and its low-cost, unpowered design.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f8f9fa;border-left:4px solid #1565c0;padding:20px 22px;margin:18px 0 24px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.7\"><div><em>&ldquo;We will continue to develop longer-range, higher-accuracy, more cost-effective solutions suitable for the modern conflict environment.&rdquo;<\/em><div style=\"margin-top:10px;font-size:14px;color:#555\"><strong>Ahmet Akyol<\/strong> &mdash; ASELSAN President and CEO, December 2025 (via T&uuml;rkiye Today)<\/div><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>ASELSAN&rsquo;s own message on 26 October was blunt: KGK-84, it said, is ready for deployment. A qualification shot is not the same as an order. But for a kit that first hit a target only ten months ago, the heaviest member of the KGK family is moving fast.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><em>Sources: ASELSAN (X, 26 Oct 2026), TURDEF, Sabah, Haber7, T&uuml;rkiye Today, Defence Industry Europe, TRT Haber<\/em><\/p>\r\n<!-- mfsh:bottom -->\r\n\r\n<button type=\"button\" class=\"mfsh-trigger mfsh-bottom\" data-mfsh-placement=\"bottom\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\"><svg><use href=\"#mfsh-i-share\"\/><\/svg>Share this story<\/button>\r\n\r\n<!-- \/mfsh:bottom -->\r\n\r\n\r\n<style>.mfq{margin:34px 0 8px}.mfq h2{font:26px\/1.3 \"Gilroy semiBold\",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;color:#0d1117;padding-top:22px;margin:0 0 6px}.mfq .qa details{border-top:1px solid #5C91FF;margin:0;padding:0}.mfq .qa details:last-of-type{border-bottom:1px solid #e2e7ee}.mfq .qa summary{cursor:pointer;list-style:none;display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;gap:16px;padding:22px 26px;font:18px\/1.7 \"Gilroy semiBold\",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;color:#0d1117}.mfq .qa summary::-webkit-details-marker{display:none}.mfq .qa summary::after{content:\"+\";font:24px Helvetica,sans-serif;color:#3568e0;flex:0 0 auto}.mfq .qa details[open] summary::after{content:\"\\2013\"}.mfq .qa details:hover summary{color:#3568e0}.mfq .qa .a{font:16px\/1.7 \"Gilroy regular\",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;color:#454e5e;padding:0 26px 24px}.mfq .qa .a a{color:#3568e0}@media(max-width:680px){.mfq .qa summary{padding:18px 14px;font-size:17px}.mfq .qa .a{padding:0 14px 20px}}<\/style>\r\n\r\n\r\n<section class=\"mfq\"><h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2><div class=\"qa\"><details open><summary>What is the ASELSAN KGK-84?<\/summary><div class=\"a\">The ASELSAN KGK-84 is a Turkish winged guidance kit for 2,000 lb-class bombs such as the Mk-84, Mk-84-T, NEB and NEB-T.
