1. A guided munition system, comprising:
a guided munition deliverable to an area by a launch platform traveling along a pre-programmed route to the area, the guided munition configured to initially travel along a first flight path through the area and to transition to a second flight path through the area in response to not identifying an on-axis target when traveling on the first flight path, the second flight path being different from the first flight path and configured to locate an off-axis target relative to the first flight path; and
a sensor onboard the guided munition, the sensor positioned relative to the guided munition and to detect an input signal indicative of the on-axis target as the guided munition moves along the second flight path;
wherein the guided munition includes a switch, the switch to input a signal identifier into the guided munition to identify signals received by the sensor that correspond to the target.
