The first ballistic missiles to be deployed was the German V2 rockets towards the end of WW2, in that they were fired from Germany and aimed at London and the surrounding area.
Happily, although nations subsequently developed the capability of deploying ballistic missiles to travel between continents with anything up to and including nuclear warheads, they have always managed to pull up short of actually doing so - and the general disarmament of 1990 onwards has reduced the threat.
Of course, there are always rogue regimes (Iran and N Korea immediately spring to mind at the moment), who seek to develop such weaponry for their own ends, but none have so far actually deployed against their enemy.

One of those is usually called a 'silo'.
First attest 1775, ultimately from Greek ballein "to throw". Of rockets or missiles, from 1949. Ballistic missile first attested 1954, attained extreme heights, hence figurative expression 'go ballistic' (1981) "become irrationally angry."
Since World War 2, the greatest attention in naval weapons has been focused on missiles. These include anti-ship missiles, anti-aircraft missiles, and ballistic missiles. Advancements in missile technology have revolutionized naval warfare and greatly increased the range and precision of naval engagements.
The U.S. responded to the Soviet Union's deployment of nuclear missiles in Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 by placing Jupiter ballistic missiles in Turkey. This move aimed to counter the Soviet threat and enhance NATO's defensive capabilities in Europe. The situation escalated tensions between the two superpowers but ultimately led to a negotiated resolution, including the removal of missiles from both Cuba and Turkey.

Pure aggression/threat. There is far more risk to the human race from atomic weapons/ballistic missiles than potential benefit.
