1. ICBMs

   An intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) is a ballistic missile with a range greater than 5,500 kilometres (3,400 mi), primarily designed for nuclear weapons delivery (delivering one or more thermonuclear warheads). Conventional, chemical, and biological weapons can also be delivered with varying effectiveness, but have never been deployed on ICBMs. 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. Russia, the United States, China, France, India, the United Kingdom, Israel, and North Korea are the only countries known to have operational ICBMs. Early ICBMs had limited precision, which made them suitable for use only against the largest targets, such as cities. They were seen as a "safe" basing option, one that would keep the deterrent force close to home where it would be difficult to attack. Attacks against military targets (especially hardened ones) still demanded the use of a more precise, manned bomber. Second- and third-generation designs (such as the LGM-118 Peacekeeper) dramatically improved accuracy to the point where even the smallest point targets can be successfully attacked. ICBMs are differentiated by having greater range and speed than other ballistic missiles: intermediate-range ballistic missiles (IRBMs), medium-range ballistic missiles (MRBMs), short-range ballistic missiles (SRBMs) and tactical ballistic missiles (TBMs). Short and medium-range ballistic missiles are known collectively as the theatre ballistic missiles.

Examples of ICBMS in a Sentence

1. Melissa Hanham:

   The Trump administration keeps downplaying these missiles because they are not ICBMs, but even though they can't reach the U.S. mainland, it's missiles like these that will start the war, they are small, easy to hide, easy to maneuver and you can't tell what kind of warhead they are carrying. They could carry a nuclear weapon.

2. Doug Loverro:

   The last thing we want to do is harm the entrepreneurial space market that we’ve built in this country. But I don’t think it’s necessarily a given that selling (ICBMs) will harm it, nor do I think that it won’t harm it. We don’t have any information one way or another.

3. Moon Hong-sik:

   The missile testing is not just done in Tongchang-ri so it does not necessarily mean all ICBMs (intercontinental ballistic missiles) will be disabled. But the most well-known one is this, so there is a great symbolic meaning if this is shut down.

4. Kim Jong:

   We knew( it was) just a matter of time. Last January, Kim Jong Un already revealed goals to develop and test new ICBMs among other high-tech weapons as part of Choi Yong-hwan five-year plan, last January doesn't matter what United States does or does not do... Pyongyang is squarely focused on meeting its nuclear weapons milestones because of its military imperative to do so.

5. Yoo Ho-yeol:

   Kim pretty much showed what’s on his mind – submarine missiles, better ICBMs and other advanced arms, he is saying that’s basically what Washington will see going forward, which could escalate tension or open doors for talks.
