What's the difference between ballistic missiles and ordinary missiles? Please tell me.

The most obvious difference is that ballistic missiles generally have no tail and wings, while other missiles, such as cruise missiles and air-to-air missiles, have tail and wings. There are also ballistic missiles guided by inertia. Other missiles include GPS guidance, laser guidance, infrared guidance, television guidance and so on. And the power plant of the missile. Ballistic missiles are all rocket engines, which can fly in space by using solid or liquid fuels with their own oxidants, while other missiles have many kinds of engines, such as rocket engines, jet engines and ramjet engines. Most of these engines rely on air.

Ballistic missiles are launched in a predetermined trajectory. After launch, turn off the engine at a predetermined position and attack the target with inertial trajectory.
