{{more references|date=September 2009}}
A '''theatre ballistic missile''' ('''TBM''') is any [[Physics:Ballistic missile|ballistic missile]] with a [[Astronomy:Range (aeronautics)|range]] less than {{convert|3500|km|mi}},<ref>{{cite web | url=https://fas.org/nuke/intro/missile/tbm.htm | title=Theater Ballistic Missiles }}</ref> used against targets "[[Social:Theater (warfare)|in-theatre]]". Its range is thus between that of [[Engineering:Tactical ballistic missile|tactical]] and [[Engineering:Intermediate-range ballistic missile|intermediate-range ballistic missile]]s. The term is a relatively new one, encompassing the former categories of [[Engineering:Short-range ballistic missile|short-range ballistic missile]] and [[Engineering:Medium-range ballistic missile|medium-range ballistic missile]].<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.armscontrol.org/factsheets/missiles | title=Worldwide Ballistic Missile Inventories &#124; Arms Control Association }}</ref> Examples of this type of in-theatre [[Engineering:Missile|missile]] are the [[Place:Soviet Union|Soviet]] [[Engineering:RT-15|RT-15]], [[Engineering:TR-1 Temp|TR-1 Temp]] and {{wipe|United States}} [[Engineering:PGM-19 Jupiter|PGM-19 Jupiter]] missile, both from the 1960s.
