Indonesia conducts first disclosed live firing from ITBM launcher

Indonesia's Army conducted its first publicly disclosed live firing of the Türkiye-supplied Indonesia Tactical Ballistic Missile launcher on October 20, 2026, using TRG-122 guided rockets rather than Khan ballistic missiles. The 22nd Field Artillery Battalion carried out the event in Kutai Kartanegara, East Kalimantan, to test readiness and improve crew proficiency. Footage showed an initial pilot shoot followed by three TRG-122 launches from the Roketsan-developed multicaliber launcher. Indonesia selected Khan in 2022, but the disclosed firing demonstrates use of the system's compatible rocket ammunition rather than a launch of its 610 mm ballistic missile.
