==History==
The concept of unmanned guidance originated at least as early as World War I, with the idea of remotely guiding an airplane bomb onto a target, such as the systems developed for the [[R.F.C. World War I Drone Weapons|first powered drones]] by Archibald Low (the father of radio guidance).{{cn|date=October 2021}}

In World War II, guided missiles were first developed, as part of the German [[V-weapons]] program.<ref name="ReferenceA">Siouris, George. ''Missile Guidance and Control Systems.'' 2004</ref> [[Project Pigeon]] was American behaviorist [[B.F. Skinner]]'s attempt to develop a pigeon-guided bomb.

The first U.S. ballistic missile with a highly accurate inertial guidance system was the short-range [[PGM-11 Redstone]].<ref name=zarc>{{cite book |last=Zarchan |first=P. |year=2012 |title=Tactical and Strategic Missile Guidance |edition=6th |location=Reston, VA |publisher=American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics |isbn=978-1-60086-894-8 }}</ref>
