📖 TERMS ON THIS PAGE5terms
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.
Relating to or using nuclear energy, typically fission, for propulsion or power generation in military vessels.
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.
Designation for intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) deployed and launched from submerged submarines.
