A missile range is a designated area where missiles are tested and evaluated. These ranges are equipped with various facilities to support the launch, tracking, and recovery of missiles. They ensure safety and control during testing, allowing for the assessment of missile performance and reliability. Missile ranges can be found in various locations around the world, often operated by military organizations or defense contractors. They may include land, sea, or air components, depending on the type of missile being tested. Examples of missile ranges include the Pacific Missile Range Facility in Hawaii and the White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico.
