👉 Missiles are advanced military systems designed for the delivery of various payloads, including weapons, over long distances. They typically consist of three main components: the launch vehicle, which propels the missile into space; the guidance system, which ensures accurate targeting and navigation; and the warhead or payload, which is the actual weapon or explosive device. Modern missiles can be categorized into ballistic missiles, which follow a ballistic trajectory and rely on gravity for their path, and cruise missiles, which use various forms of propulsion to stay on course. They are used for both strategic deterrence and tactical military operations, offering precision and range that make them a critical component of contemporary defense strategies.
