Interceptor missile

An interceptor missile is a specialized defense weapon designed to detect, track, and destroy incoming threats like enemy missiles or rockets before they reach their target. It uses advanced sensors and radar to identify the threat’s trajectory in real-time. Once locked on, the interceptor is launched to collide with or explode near the incoming missile, neutralizing it. This process is a key part of missile defense systems, acting as a protective shield to safeguard cities, military assets, or other critical infrastructure from missile attacks.
