Stinger Missile

A Stinger missile is a portable, shoulder-fired weapon designed to quickly target and destroy airborne threats like helicopters and low-flying aircraft. It uses infrared guidance to detect and track the heat emitted by the aircraft's engines, allowing the missile to autonomously home in on its target after launch. Its portability and precision make it effective for military personnel in various combat scenarios, providing a reliable means to neutralize threats from a distance without heavy equipment or support.
