Guided missile systems are advanced weapons designed to strike specific targets with high precision. They use various technologies, such as radar, GPS, and infrared, to navigate and adjust their flight path during the mission. This capability allows them to hit targets accurately, minimizing collateral damage. These systems can be launched from different platforms, including ships, submarines, and aircraft. Examples of guided missile systems include the Tomahawk cruise missile and the Patriot missile system. Their effectiveness in modern warfare has made them a crucial component of military strategy for many nations.
