👉 Cube missiles, also known as CubeLauncher or CubeSat-based Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBM), are a class of missile systems designed to be launched from small, lightweight satellites called CubeSats. These missiles typically use the same basic structure and propulsion technology as traditional ICBMs but are scaled down to fit within the constraints of a CubeSat, which measures about 10 cm on each side. They are primarily used for military purposes, such as delivering conventional or nuclear payloads over long distances, though their development and deployment are highly classified. The compact size and relatively low cost of CubeSats make them an attractive option for testing new missile technologies and strategies in space.
