What kind of weapons are these and what makes these missiles so dangerous? Part of the answer lies in the name of the missiles. Hypersonic indicates that they are much faster than regular long-range weapons or even fighter jets. Fighter planes or the famous passenger plane the Concorde are ‘only’ supersonic. That is, they are faster than the sound. Such speeds are indicated by a mach number. From mach 1 (more than 1,200 kilometers per hour) you are above the speed of sound. The hypersonic missiles go at least five times faster than the sound (mach 5). “The dagger,” as the Russians call their hypersonic missile, may be much faster. Because hypersonic missiles are so fast, it is virtually impossible for defense systems to intercept them. The approach route of such missiles is also different from that of, for example, a ballistic missile.
