A guided missile is a self-propelled, unmanned weapon system that is directed towards a specific target through the use of onboard computers, remote control, or homing mechanisms. It is designed to deliver a warhead, often in the form of explosives, with precision to damage or destroy designated targets, such as enemy aircrafts, ships, submarines, or infrastructure. The guidance system on the missile can use radar, GPS, laser, or other sensors to track and adjust its trajectory towards the target.
