👉 Detection missiles, also known as surveillance or reconnaissance missiles, are advanced systems designed to identify and track targets through various means, including radar, infrared sensors, and optical imaging. These missiles typically operate in a stealthy manner, utilizing technologies such as jamming and decoys to evade detection by enemy radars. Once a target is detected, the missile's guidance system calculates the necessary trajectory to intercept, often using real-time data for precise targeting. Modern detection missiles can be deployed in various platforms, from ground-based systems to aircraft and even satellites, providing comprehensive surveillance capabilities that enhance national security by detecting potential threats before they can engage in hostile actions.
