The concept of a weapons system is a generalized term encompassing a broad spectrum of components and subsystems. These components range from simple devices directed or fired manually by a single individual against one specific class of target to a complex array of components or subsystems that are interconnected via data buses to onboard computers, and data communication links that are capable of performing multiple functions or engaging numerous targets or target classes simultaneously. Although each subsystem may be specifically designed to solve a particular part of the fire-control problem, it is these components operating in seamless concert that allows the whole system to achieve its ultimate goal - the destruction or neutralization of the designated target.
