In the US, talked about the timing of obtaining hypersonic weapons
In the United States announced the final deadlines for the creation of hypersonic weapons. Edition Scout warrior writes that the United States is seeking to speed up the process, since samples of hypersonic weapons "are already being tested in Russia and China." A statement about the Russian and Chinese military "hypersound" tests was made during a report by representatives of the US military.
US Air Force Chief Scientist Jeff Zaharias says the first flight of a hypersonic dronereconnaissance should take place in the 30s of our century, and about 10 years after that, a reusable hypersonic reconnaissance-type drone will also take off into the air. It is noted that we are talking about UAVs that will move at a speed of about 5 times the speed of sound. One of the main tasks, as noted, facing American engineers is the calculation of the geometry of the wing of such drones.
Hypersonic missiles, according to Zacharias, in the United States will be put into service much earlier. This will happen in 2020-e years.
Earlier in Russia, military experts noted that the first domestic airborne hypersonic munitions will appear before the 2020 year. For obvious reasons, no details are given on the progress of the development of hypersonic rockets in either Russia or the United States.
It is known that in addition to Russia, the USA and China, they are engaged in the development of hypersonic weapons, for example, in Australia.
