Missiles
Missiles are a self-propelled guided weapon system. Missiles have four system components: targeting and/or guidance, flight system, engine, and warhead. Missiles come in types adapted for different purposes: surface-to-surface and air-to-surface (ballistic, cruise, anti-ship, anti-tank), surface-to-air (anti-aircraft and anti-ballistic), air-to-air, and anti-satellite missiles.

Which models of AGM-65 Missiles are certified for carry on the LAU-88 Launcher?
The AGM-65 Maverick missile models certified for carry on the LAU-88 launcher are the AGM-65A, AGM-65B, AGM-65D, and AGM-65G. These variants are designed for use on various aircraft, including the A-10 Thunderbolt II and F-16 Fighting Falcon, and they utilize the LAU-88 launcher for effective deployment. The LAU-88 is specifically designed to accommodate these variants, providing the necessary support for targeting and launch operations.
What is the long range ballistic missile in India?
Latest Agni-5 7500km...& with full warhead its 5500km
What are intercontinental ballistic missiles?
An intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) is a ballistic missile with a range of more than 5,500 kilometres (3,400 mi) typically designed for nuclear weapons delivery (delivering one or more nuclear warheads). Most modern designs support multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles (MIRVs), allowing a single missile to carry several warheads, each of which can strike a different target.
Whats are the part of missile inside?
Inside a missile, key components include the guidance system, which helps direct the missile to its target; the propulsion system, typically consisting of rocket engines or motors that provide thrust; and the warhead, which contains the explosive or payload designed to cause damage. Additionally, there are control surfaces and fins for stability and maneuverability during flight. The missile may also contain sensors and electronics for communication and targeting.
Can the President fire nuclear missiles without the approval of the Senate?
The President is the Commander In Chief of the US armed forces, and as such, he is fully empowered to make any decision and issue any order that he deems to be necessary to deal with a military threat to the US, and that would include firing nuclear missiles. If the US were under attack, that would not be a good time for the President to go to Congress and see if he can persuade them to authorize military action. However, the President can't declare war, on the Congress can do that. It may be that actually declaring war would be superfluous, if nuclear missiles were already fired.
What does spin up the missiles mean?
I believe it is the act of spinning up the gyroscope within the missile.
Do blackhawk helicopters have missiles?
Yes, Black Hawk helicopters can be equipped with missiles, although they are primarily designed for transport and utility roles. Some variants, like the AH-60L Black Hawk, have the capability to carry air-to-ground missiles such as the AGM-114 Hellfire. Additionally, they can be outfitted with other weapon systems depending on the mission requirements. Overall, while not primarily an attack helicopter, the Black Hawk can be armed for combat situations.
How much does a SCUD missile cost?
similar modern missiles (300+ range) cost is now around 1 million dollars, or a bit more.
but the price of rocket fuel (derived from oil) was cheaper then,
and the materials were low-grade, resulting in many failures.
plus - he had extremely cheap labor.
so it could have been a quarter of that.
Why don't heat-seeking missiles lock onto the sun?
they actually do lock on the sun, and can be used as a trick to evade these missiles.
What is needed to make an nuclear missile?
You are asking about two different technologies: the nuclear warhead and the rocket propulsion system. Both require their own complex hardware derived from numerous raw materials. The warhead needs fissionable material and a trigger mechanism, and the misslie needs either solid or liquid fuel and ans a guidance system.
How do build a nuclear missile?
Build a missile for launching satellites into orbit. Build a nuclear bomb. Replace the satellite payload of your missile with that nuclear bomb. Adjust the missile guidance system to drop the bomb on a selected target instead of injecting it into orbit. Simple?

There are different types of jammer.
For radar guided missile there is radar jammer.
For laser guides missile aircraft use burning magnesium strips for make confuse missile.
Which type of missile containers has yellow squares at various places on the container or box?
Service Round/U.S. Army has yellow squares on the container.
How much time would you have to live after nuclear missiles were launched?
That would depend on where they are launched from, where their target is, and where you are. Without knowing all of that it is not possible to give you a useful answer.
If your location is distant from the target it is also necessary to know wind direction, wind speed, and precipitation patterns near you in the days after the detonation to determine your fallout exposure chances.
