Guided missiles are advanced weapons designed to hit specific targets with high precision. They use various guidance systems, such as radar, GPS, or infrared, to navigate and adjust their flight path during the attack. This technology allows them to strike targets accurately, minimizing collateral damage.
These missiles can be launched from different platforms, including aircraft, ships, and ground vehicles. Examples of guided missiles include the Tomahawk cruise missile and the Hellfire missile. Their development has significantly changed modern warfare, enabling military forces to engage targets from long distances with greater effectiveness.
