👉 Alignment missiles are a class of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) designed to deliver nuclear warheads with high precision, aiming to minimize collateral damage by targeting specific military or strategic locations. Unlike conventional missiles that may have a broader range and lower accuracy, alignment missiles utilize advanced guidance systems, including GPS, inertial navigation, and terrain-following radar, to ensure they hit their intended targets with pinpoint accuracy. This precision is crucial for military operations where minimizing civilian casualties and unintended destruction is a priority. Alignment missiles are typically launched from heavily fortified silos or mobile launch platforms, and their deployment requires sophisticated targeting systems to account for factors like wind, terrain, and potential countermeasures.
