The Role of Missile Technology in Modern Warfare

Missile technology plays a crucial role in ensuring combat effectiveness for air forces. Both Raytheon and the U.S. military emphasize the need for advanced missiles like the AIM-120 AMRAAM, which has undergone significant updates to enhance performance. Recent improvements include replacing outdated components with modern technology, allowing for better missile guidance and software capabilities. As a result, these missiles now offer greater range and flexibility, enabling warfighters to respond more effectively to evolving threats in combat scenarios.
