medium-range
Neither near nor far
Medium-range describes something that falls between short and long distances, durations, or capabilities.
The term appears most often in military and technical contexts: a medium-range missile can travel farther than short-range weapons but not as far as intercontinental ones.
Weather forecasters issue medium-range forecasts covering roughly three to ten days out.
The compound also applies to planning horizons, wireless signals, and aircraft capabilities.
