👉 Characterized missiles, also known as guided or precision-guided munitions, are advanced weapon systems that utilize sophisticated guidance technologies to accurately target specific locations on enemy ground, sea, or air targets. These missiles are equipped with various sensors and navigation systems, such as GPS, inertial navigation, and radar, enabling them to autonomously or semi-autonomously follow pre-programmed flight paths. This precision allows for reduced collateral damage, increased effectiveness in military operations, and the ability to engage high-value targets that are difficult to hit with conventional munitions. Characterized missiles can be further categorized based on their range, payload capacity, and mission profile, including cruise missiles, artillery shells, and anti-ship cruise missiles, each designed to meet specific strategic and tactical requirements.
