A MIRV (Multiple Independently targetable Re-entry Vehicle) is a bus that can deliver multiple nuclear warheads from a single launch vehicle. Depending on the launch vehicle, each missile can carry up to ten or twelve separate warheads and decoys, or “chaff.” Each warhead in the MIRV is independently targetable. During testing, videos and time-exposure photographs were taken of MIRVs during reentry and descent. The results are visually striking.
