👉 Missiles are advanced military weapons capable of delivering payloads from long distances, often with guided precision. They can be categorized into various types, including ballistic missiles, which follow a ballistic trajectory and are propelled by their own momentum, and cruise missiles, which navigate using onboard guidance systems. Some missiles, like intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), can reach intercontinental ranges, while others may be shorter-range but highly maneuverable. These weapons are designed for strategic deterrence, offensive strikes, or rapid response, playing a critical role in national defense and international security dynamics.
