Best Answer

A smaller missile will usually detonate by means of an electrical impulse sent by a contact device, while larger cruise missiles and nuclear devices often contain sensing devices that are programmed to detonate when they are at a certain distance from the target. Tiny devices such as mortar shells and RPG rounds usually have blasting caps that are impact sensitive.
