According to The Telegraph, the upgraded missiles are now equipped with optical guidance systems and advanced radars, which allow them to identify targets, adjust their flight path and overcome electronic warfare (EW) systems.
Military strategist Mauro Gili of the Herty School in Berlin points out that this technology solves one of the traditional problems of ballistic missiles: accuracy in the final phase of flight.
