Ciertos misiles IRBM [misil balístico de mediano alcance] e ICBM [misil balístico intercontinental] solo llevan una carga nuclear en su ojiva pero son cada vez más numerosos los portadores de una carga múltiple cuyos componentes se separan antes de llegar al suelo. En los del tipo MRV [vehículo de reentrada con cabezas múltiples], las cargas nucleares se dispersan y alcanzan el suelo, al azar en torno del centro visado. Por el contrario, las cargas del misil MIRV, tras haberse separado, se dirigen hacia otros objetivos, a veces muy distantes unos de otros, que son alcanzados con gran precisión.  2, record 3, Spanish, - veh%C3%ADculo%20de%20reentrada%20con%20cabezas%20m%C3%BAltiples%20independientemente%20dirigidas

Blunt reentry vehicle concept advocated. Program: Mercury. H. Julian Allen of NACA Ames Laboratory conceived the "blunt nose principle" which submitted that a blunt shape would absorb only one-half of 1 percent of the heat generated by the reentry of a body into the earth's atmosphere. This principle was later significant to ICBM nose cone and the Mercury capsule development.  3, record 6, English, - blunt%20reentry%20vehicle

The Mk-21 RV (formerly known as the ABRV - advanced ballistic re-entry vehicle) was selected over the Mk-12a RV due to its greater accuracy, greater hardness (to weapon effects), lower cost, at the penalty of greater weight. The joint selection of W-87/Mk-21 was made by the DOD on 29 January 1982. The PBV can accommodate 12 Mk-12a RVs or 11 Mk-21 RVs.  2, record 8, English, - advanced%20ballistic%20re%2Dentry%20vehicle
