👉 Missile defense systems, including missile launches, are complex defense mechanisms designed to detect, track, and neutralize incoming ballistic missiles or other hostile projectiles. The process typically begins with a sensor network, including radar and infrared systems, that identifies potential threats from various angles and distances. Once a threat is detected, data is analyzed to determine the missile's trajectory and potential impact zone. If a threat is confirmed, a decision is made to either intercept the missile using a surface-to-air missile (SAM) or a ballistic missile defense system, or to trigger defensive measures like decoys or jamming signals to disrupt the missile's guidance system. These systems are continuously updated and refined to counter evolving threats, often involving international cooperation and shared intelligence.
