The first aircraft to discover and identify missiles in a military context was the Lockheed U-2. This high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft was utilized during the Cold War to gather intelligence on Soviet missile sites and other military installations. Its ability to fly at extremely high altitudes allowed it to capture detailed images and data that were crucial for national security assessments.

How are missiles launched from fighter planes?
All current missiles are electrically triggered in a sequence to 'spool up' as they release from the aircraft.
Is it easy to sink aircraft carriers?

Overall, the missile capacity is determined by the ship's design and mission requirements.
