👉 Backup missiles are secondary offensive or defensive systems designed to complement a nation's primary missile arsenal, providing redundancy and enhancing overall military readiness. These missiles can be deployed in various configurations, such as mobile launchers on ships or ground-based silos, and are typically equipped with different types of warheads, including cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, or anti-ship missiles. Their primary purpose is to ensure that even if the main missile systems are compromised or incapacitated, the country retains the capability to retaliate or defend itself effectively. Backup missiles also serve as a deterrent, signaling the nation's commitment to maintaining a robust and resilient defense posture.
