Good one jaxie. Your intelligence is shining through as usual.

You're too funny Jax. According to your strict definition, a bullet is
not ballistic either since it's guided by the gun barrel for the initial
portion of it's flight and travels in a straight line, not a ballistic
flight path, for that portion of it's journey to the target.
ballistic
\Bal*lis"tic\, a. 1. Of or pertaining to the ballista, or to the art of
hurling
stones or missile weapons by means of an engine.
ballistic
adj : relating to or characteristic of the motion of objects moving under
their
own momentum and the force of gravity; "ballistic missile"
Neither of those definitions preclude an ICBM from having a navigation
system since they are obviously only ballistic for a portion of their
flight path, not the entire path. Just like a bullet or hurling stone
or missile weapons, all of which are ballistic weapons but do not follow
a path strictly under their own momentum and the force of gravity for
the entire trip. They all have to get started somehow. The way you are
limiting their motion, all they could do is fall when dropped.
Face it Jaxie, even though it's obvious you are only arguing for the
sake of argument, you can't even do that effectively.
