Description: TAURUS KEPD 350E, the modular stand-off weapon system for precision strikes against hardened and high-value targets, designed to penetrate dense air defences by utilising very low level terrain following flight.Its highly effective dual stage warhead system combines excellent penetration capabilities for high value hard and deeply buried targets (HDBT) as well as blast fragmentation capabilities against area targets. The world’s only programmable intelligent multi-purpose fuze enables detonation of the penetrator at preselected floors, within the target structure through layer counting and void-sensing technologies. Its unique navigation system utilises INS continuously supported by GPS: image based and terrain reference sensors. This fail-safe concept enables the system to maintain its planned flight path even without permanent GPS availability.
