👉 Continuous missiles, also known as cruise missiles, are advanced ballistic missile systems designed to deliver a payload—typically a conventional or nuclear warhead—over long distances with the capability to maneuver in flight during their journey. Unlike traditional ballistic missiles that follow a predetermined trajectory, continuous missiles use sophisticated guidance systems to adjust their flight path in real-time, allowing them to stay within a specified target area or hit a moving target. These missiles are typically launched from surface-to-air missile (SAM) systems or land-based platforms and can travel at hypersonic speeds, making them extremely difficult to intercept. Their ability to evade conventional defenses and strike from a distance makes them a significant component of modern military arsenals, enhancing strategic deterrence and tactical flexibility.
