SBM (Surface-to-Air Ballistic Missile)

A Surface-to-Air Ballistic Missile (SBM) is a guided missile designed to be launched from the ground to intercept and destroy incoming aerial threats like enemy aircraft or other missiles. It travels along a high-arc, ballistic trajectory, enabling it to reach altitudes and distances to effectively target threats deep in the sky. SBMs are part of a country's air defense system, providing protection by detecting, tracking, and intercepting hostile aircraft or missiles before they reach their targets. They rely on advanced radar and targeting technologies to precisely engage fast-moving airborne threats.
