New Delhi: Cruise missiles are designed to deliver a large warhead over long distances with high accuracy.
It is a guided missile, the major portion of whose flight path to its target is conducted at approximately constant velocity; that relies on the dynamic reaction of air for lift, and upon propulsion forces to balance drag.
Modern cruise missiles can travel at supersonic or high subsonic speeds, are self-navigating, and can fly on a non-ballistic, extremely low altitude trajectory.
