Missles can be launched from aircraft, ships or land. They are referred to as air to air and surface to air missles.
During WW2 aircraft used machine guns and automatic cannons, 20mm primarily. During the Vietnam War, jet aircraft used 20/30mm cannons and air to air missiles during aerial combat (dog-fights).
SAMs (Surface to Air Missiles) which gained notoriety during the Vietnam War (shooting down B-52 bombers/and fighter bombers) are for air defense and are part of the air defense system; as were deployed by North Vietnam during the war. ICBMs (Inter-Continental Ballistic Missiles=Nuclear Warheads/Atomic Weapons) were to supplement or replace manned bombers which were offensive weapons (aircraft=bombers) to strike enemy cities and other targets (missile sites, sea ports, air fields, repair facilities, ammuntion depots, factories, etc.).
Because the nuclear weapons were missiles that could be deployed to the United States. And they were getting ready to launch them. this is lies
Air Weapons Complex was created on 1992-02-18.
For the same reason the USSR government wanted the US missiles in Turkey removed. They were seen as a threat and a provocation. Both the US and USSR got the missiles removed that they wanted removed (but the US wanted to pretend removing the missiles in Turkey had no connection to removing the missiles in Cuba for political reasons, and Khrushchev allowed this).
Usually machine guns and air to air missiles. Sometimes they might also carry air to surface missiles or bombs. Some (e.g. F-14, F/A-18) can carry nuclear bombs.
480 cannon shells. Most of the weapons are air-to-air missiles. The 480 shells are enough for 5 seconds of firing.
In 1955 in the US, the ICBM was still generally considered impractical, nuclear warheads were just too large and heavy for them. Work was in progress on IRBMs and SRBMs. Surface to air, air to air, and air to surface missiles with nuclear warheads were already in stockpile as antiaircraft and standoff weapons.
Weapons launched (fired) from submarines include torpedoes, ballistic missiles, or cruise missiles. These are the primary weapons, and a few other options exist.
Pure aggression/threat. There is far more risk to the human race from atomic weapons/ballistic missiles than potential benefit.
Muskets, swords pistols knives and long range ballistic missiles ( kidding about the missiles)

Missiles are used for a wide variety of military purposes. They are known to be used to destroy weapons collections and hideouts. New technology has made missiles amazingly accurate.
They used missiles, bombs, fuel-laden planes, and biological weapons.
Some nuclear weapons can be fitted to missiles. In the case of an ICBM (Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles) a nuclear weapon can be outfitted so that it can reach distant points on the globe.
