Ballistic Missile Technology

Ballistic missile technology involves the design and use of missiles that follow a curved, ballistic trajectory to deliver payloads such as warheads over long distances. These missiles are launched into a high-altitude arc and then descend toward their target due to gravity, relying on advanced guidance systems to improve accuracy. They come in various ranges, from short-range to intercontinental, and are used primarily for strategic military purposes. Developing such technology requires sophisticated engineering, including propulsion systems, navigation, and multi-stage rockets, making it a complex and highly technical field integral to modern defense strategies.
