👉 Missiles are guided weapons systems designed to deliver a payload, typically a warhead, over long distances with precision. They can be categorized into various types based on their range and delivery method, such as intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), which can strike targets across continents; cruise missiles, which follow a predetermined flight path and are guided by radar or GPS; and ballistic missiles, which travel in a straight trajectory and rely on gravity for their path. Missiles can be launched from fixed bases, mobile platforms like ships or aircraft, or even from submarines. Their addresses refer to specific launch sites or targets they are designed to hit, often marked on maps or designated by military codes.
