👉 Archiles missiles, also known as ABM (Anti-Ballistic Missile) systems, are defensive missile defense systems designed to protect a country from incoming ballistic missiles. These systems typically consist of multiple layers of interceptors, such as ground-based interceptors like the Pershing II and Cruise missiles, or mobile interceptors like the Tomahawk cruise missile. They are strategically positioned to detect and intercept incoming missiles at various ranges, aiming to neutralize threats before they reach their intended targets. The development of ABM systems dates back to the Cold War era, with the United States and the Soviet Union both investing heavily in these defenses. However, their deployment has been controversial due to concerns over potential destabilization of the strategic balance and the risk of escalating arms races.
