Description
Hypersonic weapons fly at least Mach 5 – five times the speed of sound, or approximately 3,800 mph. Unlike ballistic missiles, which can reach similar speeds but have a relatively fixed flight path, hypersonic weapons, once developed, would fly at lower altitudes, be highly maneuverable, and may be able to change targets during flight. This will make them extremely difficult to defend against.
