The United States announced the lack of protection against hypersonic weapons

US military and congressmen believe that Russia and China are ahead of the United States in developing a hypersonic weaponswrites The Hill.

Right now we are defenseless
- quotes the publication of a member of the US Senate Committee on the Armed Forces, James Inhof.



The United States announced the lack of protection against hypersonic weapons


Thomas Karako, a staff member at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), an expert in missile defense, also agreed that the States are lagging behind Russia and China in this area.

The reason is that the United States does not make even approximately comparable efforts in the development of its own similar weapons, and in the creation of systems capable of detecting and knocking them down.
- He explained.

Earlier, the chairman of the Strategic Command of the US Armed Forces, General John Heithen, speaking in Congress, acknowledged that the United States does not have the means of protection directly from hypersonic weapons, RIA reports News

      Does Israel have such a weapon? belay Well, do it, but do not speak for Russia! Or are you expecting that you urgently post secret photos in the public domain? Not in reproach, the toad strangled you that we were able to implement the program since the times of the USSR, having actually created several versions of hypersonic weapons, thereby overtaking the whole world? ??

        And what the Russians mean: there is a BR with hypersonic warhead. Shavit rocket - 3-speed.

      Practical aerodynamics is not really my paraffin, but I am quite well aware of what aerodynamic heating and thermal barrier are. The beginnings of thermodynamics are not a secret to me, too, and seven, if the fundamental laws of Physics have not yet been abolished, and revolutionary changes did not occur on these days, then this label is still applicable. Understand it is not difficult. Whoever forgot, to convert Kelvin degrees to Celsius degrees that are more familiar to us, 273 should be subtracted from the numerical value.

    Americans understand hypersonic weapons as
    KR flying in a dense atmosphere with ramjet engine.
    There is no protection from them. And there are no such missiles themselves ..
    And Russians understand hypersonic weapons as warhead warheads.
    Flying from space. Hence the mutual misunderstanding.

        Getting into the maneuvering warhead of the BR is, of course, not easy, but possible.
        The warhead maneuvers are very limited, otherwise it will fly away from the main course.

      Maybe the Americans just know a little more about the development of hypersonic weapons in Russia than you do, and more than Putin said? And then surprisingly, in 1994 there was a prototype (flying, not animated) hypersonic CR with ramjet, then it seemed to cease to be, but now there is nothing at all, some hypersonic warheads are not clear

        And what is not clear then. The principal temperatures are in ks pvrd and spvrd. Yard and yard + PVD only complicates the design. There are no materials more than 10 sec withstanding 5m in the case of PvRD, and in the case of turbojet, and then ballistic, there are no such materials for 6 m in temperature on the skin. And understand, they are fundamentally not. New fundamental approaches are needed, and this will not go unnoticed by the scientific community.

            Sit down badly. The fact is that all duralumin are covered at 250 degrees, tungsten and titanium additives do not reach 400. All other alloys are extremely heavy, expensive and difficult to handle. It remains pottery. Integral is not suitable, because does not tolerate uneven heating. Ceramic tiles remain. They pasted over the case. First of all, they are very heavy. Secondly, they fell away. Up to a third of the surface remained bald. There are a number of unresolved problems, since ceramics, glue and body have different coefficients of expansion.

                Find, of course. But it will be tomorrow. No offense, dear, but 75 years ago it was still possible to take good and smart people, drive them into prison sharashki and under fear for themselves, for loved ones, make them literally create new and very necessary things on their knees. What was created in this way, of course, you know. Today, such methods do not work. In the kitchen, you can make a knife, brass knuckles and even a bomb, but ceramic coatings that withstand thousands of degrees, adhesives that are resistant to incredible temperatures, etc., require powerful laboratories and complex industries. There are no materials for these industries, and there are no serious experts in these industries. Projects such as hypersound, powerful lasers, nuclear engines are comparable in scale with the creation, in due time, of nuclear weapons. It takes huge amounts of time and money. Nothing of this TODAY in Russia yet. I repeat, TODAY. hi

    Precisely said. My post is below.


    Firstly, Putin and Shoigu officially announced to the whole world that such weapons exist. So it is. Yes, and I believe them, because these people are authorities for me.
    You are not.
    Secondly, envy is bad laughing

    But why the West needs protection from missiles? According to them that someone was going to shoot? The whole government is comprador, elite, with Albion passes. It’s enough to think that since the collapse of the union there have not been a single candidate from the real opposition, but now generally clowns and nipples are running. How long will the oligarchic party go on? They drive people by the nose, muddle the water across all the seas and oceans. You might even think that the circle closed at the "not protruding elite of the ball." All economies work for a buck, and they don't care how much you have rockets and how are they etayut.Ili someone has the guts to even really threaten at least one carrier to the bottom to let all of its citizens, the victims and for those who were not even born because of the cowardice of the leader?
