missile systems
Military projectile technology
Missile systems are integrated weapons platforms designed to launch guided projectiles toward targets, combining the missile itself with launch equipment, guidance technology, targeting sensors, and command infrastructure.
These systems range from portable shoulder-fired units to massive intercontinental ballistic missile installations.
Military contexts distinguish between surface-to-air, air-to-air, surface-to-surface, and other configurations based on launch and target locations.
The country invested heavily in upgrading its missile systems.
