👉 Carrier missiles are advanced ballistic missile systems mounted on aircraft carriers, primarily used for long-range precision strikes against ground targets, naval vessels, and other strategic objectives. These missiles are designed to deliver a payload with high accuracy over vast distances, often exceeding 5,000 kilometers. They typically employ various guidance technologies, including inertial navigation and GPS, to ensure precision. Carrier missiles can be categorized into land-attack and sea-attack types, with the former targeting land-based facilities and the latter designed for naval warfare. Their deployment on carriers enhances a nation's strategic deterrence capabilities and global military reach, making them a critical component of modern naval warfare.
