A
missile is a rocket-propelled weapon designed to deliver an explosive warhead with accuracy and speed. A
bomb is simply a warhead, and once released, is completely governed by the laws of ballistics, meaning that the only force that acts upon it after it is released is the force of gravity. If we attach any type of propulsion system to a bomb, it becomes a
rocket. Because of its means of propulsion, a rocket can travel farther and faster than a bomb. If guided and control mechanism is attached to a rocket, it becomes a missile, which can be further classified into various ways. The classification can be based on origin and target, such as surface-to-surface missile (SSM), air-to-surface missile (ASM) etc. Ot it can be classified on the basis of the working principle - or of their purpose- like strategic and tactical missiles.
