👉 Assumed missiles in this context refer to ballistic and cruise missiles, which are guided or unguided projectiles designed for long-range precision strikes. Ballistic missiles typically use ballistic trajectories, relying on gravity and initial velocity to follow a curved path before reaching their target, often requiring guidance systems for accuracy. Cruise missiles, on the other hand, follow a more stable, straight path over extended distances, guided by inertial navigation systems to maintain course and altitude. These missiles can be further categorized into short-range, intermediate-range, and long-range types, each with varying guidance technologies and ranges.
