📖 TERMS ON THIS PAGE6terms
Designation for an ICBM equipped with a canister launcher, enabling rapid deployment and reduced exposure during launch.
Able to deliver conventional warheads via ICBM.
Guidance system combining inertial navigation (self-contained motion tracking) with GPS (satellite-based positioning) for precise trajectory correction in ballistic missiles.
Road-mobile: a deployment mode for ICBMs where the missile is mounted on a wheeled or tracked transporter‑erector‑launcher that can travel on public roads, enabling movement and concealment.
Propellant consisting of a solid mixture of fuel and oxidizer, enabling long-term storage and immediate launch readiness.
Terminal guidance is the final phase of a missile’s flight in which onboard sensors (e.g., radar, infrared) actively steer the weapon to its target.
