Land Structure - Hardened

A category of weapon target in the Command model.

A Land Structure is some type of physical object (e.g. building, bunker, silo, etc...) emplaced on land. It is stationary. "Hardened" structures have been reinforced by armor, concrete, or other construction methods and materials to withstand explosive blasts.

Command uses the weapon target types to determine if a particular weapon and sensor system can engage a particular target. For example, targets on land will often require different sensors and processing than targets on water. And, mobile targets will require terminal sensors and guidance to bring the warhead to the target.

Command distinguishes the weapon target types into:

Aircraft
Helicopter
Missile
Submarine
Surface Vessel
Land Structure - Soft
Land Structure - Hardened
