Cruise missile
A cruise missile is an unmanned self-propelled guided vehicle that sustains flight through aerodynamic lift for most of its flight path and whose primary mission is to place an ordnance or special payload on a target. [ 1] Cruise missiles are designed to deliver a large warhead over long distances with high precision. Modern cruise missiles are capable of traveling at high subsonic, supersonic ...
Cruise missile
Cruise missile, type of low-flying strategic guided missile. Capable of carrying either a nuclear or a conventional warhead, the cruise missile was designed to have a very low radar cross section and to hug the ground while traveling at a relatively slow speed to its target.
Fact Sheet: Ballistic vs. Cruise Missiles
There are four general classifications of ballistic missiles based on their range, or the maximum distance the missile can travel: Short-range: less than 1,000 kilometers (approximately 620 miles), also known as "tactical" ballistic missiles. Medium-range: between 1,000 and 3,000 kilometers (approximately 620-1,860 miles), also known as "theater" ballistic missiles. Intermediate-range ...
How Cruise Missiles Work
The Basics. A cruise missile is basically a small, pilotless airplane. Cruise missiles have an 8.5-foot (2.61-meter) wingspan, are powered by turbofan engines and can fly 500 to 1,000 miles (805 to 1,610 km) depending on the configuration. A cruise missile's job in life is to deliver a 1,000-pound (450-kg) high-explosive bomb to a precise ...
Tomahawk Long-Range Cruise Missile
Tomahawk is a long-range, all-weather, subsonic cruise missile in service with the surface ships and submarines of the US and the UK's Royal Navy. Originally produced by General Dynamics, Tomahawk is currently manufactured by Raytheon. The Tomahawk Land Attack Missile (TLAM) can strike high-value or heavily defended land targets.
Tomahawk
The Tomahawk is a long-range, unmanned weapon with an accuracy of about 5 metres (16 feet). The 5.6-metre- (18.4-foot-) long missile has a range of up to approximately 2,400 km (about 1,500 miles) and can travel as fast as 885 km (550 miles) per hour. Tomahawks are launched vertically from ships, but they can be launched horizontally from ...
Cruise Missile Basics
Cruise missiles are capable of being launched from multiple ground, air, sea and submarine platforms. Both fighter and long-range bomber aircraft are capable of carrying and launching cruise missiles. [5] On the ground, cruise missiles are most commonly launched by road-mobile systems due to the inherent advantages of mobility, but they can ...

Range of a Cruise Missile
The ranges of cruise missiles vary from 105 km to 3,000 km. The similarity between the missiles is that they fly low and have low radar. This ability allows them to evade detection in defense systems. The average radar cross-section in a cruise missile is 1 square meter.

Here's what you need to know about the Navy's new Block V Tomahawk.
AGM-158 JASSM
A JASSM detonates above a hardened target during tests. The AGM-158 Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile (AGM-158 JASSM) is a low detection standoff air-launched cruise missile developed by Lockheed Martin for the United States Armed Forces. [7] It is a large, stealthy long-range weapon with a 1,000-pound (450 kg) armor piercing warhead.
AGM-86 Air-Launched Cruise Missile (ALCM)
The AGM-86 Air-Launched Cruise Missile (ALCM) is a long-range, air-launched standoff missile designed to give U.S. bombers the ability to launch their payload from outside the range of anti-aircraft weapons. It is a central element of the United States strategic bomber force. ALCM Development The ALCM program began in the early 1970s, designed to give...
A Short History of the Cruise Missile
Cruise missiles were originally designed to carry nuclear weapons long distances, allowing bombers to strike their targets without entering the range of an adversary's air-defense weapons ...
