👉 A flight weapon, often referred to as a "flying weapon" or "air-to-air weapon," is a type of missile or drone designed to engage and neutralize enemy aircraft. These weapons are typically launched from ground-based or airborne platforms and are engineered to intercept, destroy, or disable enemy planes mid-flight. They utilize advanced guidance systems, including inertial navigation and GPS, to accurately target and engage targets at high speeds. Flight weapons can employ various technologies such as kinetic energy, where they physically collide with the enemy aircraft, or directed energy, using lasers or other forms of electromagnetic radiation to disable or destroy the target. Their primary purpose is to provide a rapid and effective countermeasure against aerial threats, enhancing air defense capabilities and contributing to national security.
