Chinese scientists are developing a heat-seeking hypersonic weapon that could hit a car-sized target, potentially expanding the application of these

Stealth destroyer to be home for 1st hypersonic weapon on a US warship
ARRW will be the first hypersonic weapon deployed by the U.S., but Roper sees a high- and low-flying mix of hypersonic missiles as a longer-term goal.
Hypersonic weapons fly much higher than slower subsonic missiles—but much lower than intercontinental ballistic missiles.
Japanese Prime Minister Abe Shinzō recently abruptly announced that he was stepping down. In his outgoing remarks, Abe stressed the importance of missile defense, saying, “we have neighbors that are developing nuclear weapons and missiles that can reach Japan. We must ensure Japan is protected from such countries.” Behind Abe’s comments lie rapid advancements in new missile technologies in East Asia. The advent of the hypersonic missile, which some say is impervious to interception by current antimissile technology, has created a whole new kind of threat.

The New York Times ascribes agency and responsibility to mysterious forces and inanimate missiles manipulating the US both in its headline—it’s the missiles that are “starting a new global arms race,” not the government—and in its claim that “the rush” to possess hypersonic missiles has “pushed the United States into an arms race with Russia and China.”
BATH, Maine—The US Navy’s workhorse destroyer went into production more than 30 years ago, when Tom Stevens was a young welder. Now, the Navy is getting ready to turn the page as it looks to a future ship brimming with lasers that can shoot down missiles and attack enemies with…
Boris Johnson, Joe Biden, and Scott Morrison issued an agreed statement on Tuesday in which they reiterated 'unwavering commitment' to a global system which 'respects human rights'.
In September, 2021, Sebastian I. Banuchi, Thomas M. Hughes, Cole Rice, and Thia N. Tank had a report published by the U.S. Navy’s Naval Postgraduate School titled: “Bringing hypersonic Missile Capability to the Fleet.” Their System Engineering Report essentially focused on how to transport, load, set up, fire, breakdown, and store the U.S. Navy’s Conventional Prompt Strike (CPS) or the U.S. Army’s Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon (LRHW) missile carried on U.S. Army M870A3 trailers using existing U.S. Navy ships because the Navy has not designed and built a custom ship or submarine specifically to fire hypersonic missiles; the Navy is modifying existing ships and subs for CPS. The goal of the report is to examine how to launch a CPS or LRHW missile from in-service U.S. Navy ships, as the 1,725 mile (2,776 kilometers) hypersonic missile’s range can pose a threat to a huge battlespace area.
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in collaboration with Lockheed Martin are developing the OpFires mobile medium-range hypersonic missile assembly to fit on the back of an U.S. Army’s Palletized Load System (PLS) 5-axle 10x10 truck. OpFires will provide the U.S. Army with a highly mobile vehicle for firing hypersonic missiles that is independent of the tractor and trailer combination for the longer-range (strategic) hypersonic missiles. The U.S. Marines may also be interested in OpFires as they use the similar Logistic Vehicle Replacement System (LVSR) 10x10 truck.
