Definition
制导 is a technical term meaning 'to guide and control' the trajectory of a missile, rocket, or other projectile using internal or external systems. It often appears in compound nouns like 制导系统 (guidance system) and 制导导弹 (guided missile), functioning more like a noun or adjective than a standalone verb in everyday Chinese. This is a specialized military/aerospace term; you won't hear it in casual conversation.
