explosive part of a missile
The front part of a missile, rocket, or torpedo that holds the explosive material that will damage the target.
用法パターン：
a warhead on [a missile]
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes confuse "warhead" with the whole weapon or missile. A "warhead" is only the explosive or destructive part at the front, not the entire missile or rocket.
類義語
explosive payload (More descriptive and general; used for any explosive carried by a weapon, not only missiles or torpedoes.)
対義語
inert warhead (Refers to a non-explosive training or test version, so it contrasts with an active, explosive warhead.)
