GPS-guided shells
GPS-guided shells are artillery projectiles equipped with global positioning system (GPS) technology that allows for precise targeting. Once fired, the shell's onboard GPS receiver continuously tracks its position, enabling it to adjust its flight path in real-time or upon impact, ensuring it hits the designated target with high accuracy. This technology reduces collateral damage and increases effectiveness, especially against specific targets. GPS-guided shells are used in modern warfare to improve the precision of long-range artillery, making them more reliable and reducing the number of shells needed to achieve mission objectives.
