Pentagon Says It Has Completed Successful Hypersonic Missile Test by Nobody: 6:46pm On Jul 20, 2022 |
The Pentagon said this week that it successfully completed a third flight test of an air-breathing hypersonic weapon. In a press release, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) said that the Hypersonic Air-breathing Weapon Concept (HAWC) — a joint project between DARPA and the Air Force that uses captured air from the atmosphere to achieve sustained propulsion — achieved a successful test in early July. The speed and maneuverability of the missile concept allows it to evade defenses and carry out quick strikes The July test was the second successful test flight of Raytheon’s version of the missile design, which uses a scramjet engine made by Northrop Grumman. DARPA previously successfully tested the Raytheon design in September. DARPA also successfully tested a version of the weapon made by Lockheed Martin in March, but news of the test wasn’t reported until April. The announcement was delayed to avoid tensions with Russia, which a week prior claimed to strike a Ukrainian weapons storage facility with a hypersonic missile. The test also comes a week after the Air Force disclosed that it successfully tested another hypersonic weapon — the Air-Launched Rapid Response Weapon Booster — off the coast of Southern California. In its release, DARPA said the scramjet engine propelled the weapon to speeds greater than five times the speed of sound for 300 nautical miles and reached altitudes higher than 60,000 feet. In a separate press release, Raytheon said that after releasing the HAWC from an aircraft and accelerating to hypersonic speeds, the vehicle flew “a trajectory that engineers designed to intentionally stress the weapon concept to explore its limits and further validate digital performance models.” |

BritishNaija: How many times will U.S complete a successful hypersonic missile tests just to end up failing woefully in another subsequent test. I don't know if I am the only one observing this. Go and compare the timeline of U.S hypersonic weapons test to that of China and Russia. 5 Likes |

Hanibbal: You are funny, the one thing i love about US is that the make open failures when testing a weapon, how many time have you heard about Russia doing same? Or is it China that don't allow anyone see anything? US is working on it hypersonic Missile not only to be superior, But best of the best, if it's to junk out inferior hypersonic missile, They would have done that already, But They add things that that of advisories can never match. It's like comparing US jets with Russia jets, or US Carrier with that of Russia or US Subs with that of Russia, Including China. There is difference between Quantity and Quality 4 Likes |
Re: Pentagon Says It Has Completed Successful Hypersonic Missile Test by Hanibbal(m): 11:26am On Jul 21, 2022 |
BritishNaija: Can a nation test weapon without any powerful/rival nation knowing about it? What makes you think U.S jets are superior. Ask a U.S vietnam war veteran how North Vietnamese Russiand made miggs and S-75 were blowing U.S fighter out of the skies in vietnam. Have you read a news that a Chinese sub quietly surfaced behind an American Aircraft carrier in South China sea that incident alone sent a shock around U.S military with everyone asking if it was a war time, China would have sunk that carrier easily and quietly. Please google it. Quantity matters and who told you China nd Russia don't produce quality military hardware.lols U.S and NATO takes China and Russia threats seriously ok. A rising China allying with Russia is really upsetting America and NATO. Why is America Running helter skelter to form new alliance in Asia just to counter China rise. America fears a rising China with Russia as ally. Go and prepare for your exam boy. 8 Likes |

Hanibbal: You know nothing, Just like in business, you can Always solicitate for allies for war. We are talking about now you are talking about veitnam, What a comic. You should also bring in World War 1. When did you ever heard of failures encountered by China or Russia during hypersonic Missile testing phases? Chinese sub quitely surface behind US Aircraft carrier? Fella you are a terrible liar. The only sub that quitely sneak to US Carrier was that of Swidish Navy during War Game execise, You think you are talking with Kids in your level of delusional lies. Compare US War planes one on one with that of russia with What is available on open space Let see Which is superior, If not go and play under trees kid. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Kingsnairaland: Pease show me Where google will tell me, If i Count counter it, Then you won. Submarine is not all about big in size, But the technology and the avionics involved Which US is best at. I can still Remember when US Submarine was involved, going down to Soviet waters in the Russia backyard and secretly tapped Soviet cables underwater for years, If not for the Formal Secret agent that sold out that Secret Mission for money, Russia would never know that US Subs came to their doorstep and tapping their underwater cables and picking out informations, you want to compare US with Russia Subs. 5 Likes |

BritishNaija: How do you expect Google to tell you the truth until you make critical research Google even took best air defense in the world and put number one at the down and started counting number one from down Just because they are jealous of Russia being known as the best air defence This will show you they hide critical information openly unless you research deeper Nukes has level and if I tell you Russia nukes is the most dangerous in the world you won't believe it . Below prove Google jealous mindsets Number one should be counted from top not bottom lol 1 Like 1 Share
