America’s blow against Russia, China, first test of hypersonic missile system failed

The US, which is facing the threat of hypersonic missiles from Russia, China and North Korea in the midst of the Ukraine war, has suffered a major setback. America’s hypersonic missile fails the test. The US Defense Ministry, the Pentagon, has admitted that its latest missile test has failed due to “irregularities”. The Pentagon tested the entire system of hypersonic missiles for the first time. The test was conducted at the Pacific Missile Range Facility in Hawaii.

It is being told that during this test, the common hypersonic glide body was mounted on top of the two-stage missile. The booster was to give this missile a hypersonic speed of 5 Mach. The glide body then detaches and uses the speed to achieve its target. The Pentagon tested the entire system of hypersonic missiles for the first time. The US Defense Ministry said that the entire system could not complete its testing due to an irregularity.

‘Hypersonic weapons top priority for us’
The Pentagon insisted it was not a completely failed test. He did not say what irregularities happened in the missile. It also did not say at which stage of the missile this problem occurred. A Pentagon spokesman said that the information obtained from this test is very important. He said that hypersonic weapons are a top priority for us and the Ministry of Defense is confident that it will achieve its goal of achieving hypersonic capability for attack and defense within the stipulated time frame.

The failure of the hypersonic missile test is a big setback for America. While China, Russia and North Korea have deployed hypersonic missiles, the US military has still not been able to find its break. Russia has also openly used hypersonic missiles in the war in Ukraine. Hypersonic missiles fly at a speed of Mach 5, which is why no air defense system can beat them. This is the reason why they are called the modern Brahmastra.
