Nuclear weapons are fearsome, but the long-range ballistic missile gives them a stealth and merciless swiftness which is much more terrifying.

In the parapsychology foundation's long-range experiment, readings are made by a variety of sensitives for a large number of cooperating sitters, trying to throw light on this question of the significance of mediumistic statements.

Since World War II, main battle tanks have largely replaced gun-armed tank destroyers although lightly armored anti tank guided missile ( ATGM ) carriers are commonly used for supplementary long-range anti-tank work.

But there are still dedicated anti-tank vehicles with very heavy long-range missiles, and ones intended for airborne use.

They are usually used for long-range indirect bombardment support on the battlefield.

Since World War II, main battle tanks have largely replaced gun-armed tank destroyers although lightly armored anti tank guided missile ( ATGM ) carriers are commonly used for supplementary long-range anti-tank work.

Strategic bombing are heavy bombers primarily designed for long-range bombing missions against strategic targets such as supply bases, bridges, factories, shipyards, and cities themselves, in order to damage an enemy's war effort.

Perhaps the one meaningful distinction at present is the question of range: a bomber is generally a long-range aircraft capable of striking targets deep within enemy territory, whereas fighter bombers and attack aircraft are limited to ' theater ' missions in and around the immediate area of battlefield combat.

, all five of the nations with permanent seats on the United Nations Security Council have operational long-range ballistic missile systems: all have submarine-launched missiles, and Russia, the United States and China also have land-based ICBMs ( the US ' missiles are silo-based, China and Russia have both silo and road-mobile missiles ).

One can distinguish positional order ( whether molecules are arranged in any sort of ordered lattice ) and orientational order ( whether molecules are mostly pointing in the same direction ), and moreover order can be either short-range ( only between molecules close to each other ) or long-range ( extending to larger, sometimes macroscopic, dimensions ).

Thus, the molecules are free to flow and their center of mass positions are randomly distributed as in a liquid, but still maintain their long-range directional order.

Glasses, some ceramics, and many natural materials are amorphous, not possessing any long-range order in their atomic arrangements.

Infantry units equipped with IFVs rather than lighter vehicles are commonly designated as " heavy ", indicating more combat power but also more costly long-range transportation requirements.

The consequence of the Pauli principle here is that electrons of the same spin are kept apart by a repulsive exchange interaction, which is a short-range effect, acting simultaneously with the long-range electrostatic or coulombic force.

For microscopic bodies, the extension of the system is much smaller than the coherence length, which gives rise to long-range entanglement and other nonlocal phenomena that are characteristic of quantum systems.

The weapons are balanced by role, with each weapon having advantages in certain situations such as at long-range or fired around a corner ; the BFG is an exception to this as a super-weapon.

Thus, rearrangements on a local scale ( kinks ) are relatively rapid, while on a long-range scale ( convolutions ) very slow.
