| Missile warheads may contain explosives powerful enough to destroy an entire city. Patriot missiles are medium-to-long range mobile air defense weapons, designed to intercept and destroy enemy missiles before they strike. Patriot missiles based in Israel were used in the Persian Gulf War to intercept several Scud missiles launched by Iraq. Here, a Patriot missile explodes from a launcher. | ||||||
