Washington Examiner: How Russia got hypersonic missiles before the US
Department of Defense officials sought to answer this week the question of how the United States fell behind in hypersonic weapon development and what it is now doing to catch up with Russia and China.
"That’s one we get a lot, really,” Mike White, assistant director for hypersonics at the Pentagon, said at a Monday press briefing, responding to a question from the Washington Examiner as to how Russia already has tested weapons and the U.S. is still in the experimental phase of hypersonic missile development.
“In past decades, we've been world leaders in hypersonics technology, but we have consistently made the decision to not transition that to weapon applications and build weapons systems out of hypersonic technologies that we were working on in the laboratory,” he said.
But the Russians and Chinese have.

I call BS on this, the Russians are world class BS artists, I doubt they have any of these missiles active. Their military is broke, they cannot afford also supposed superior technology their propaganda machine constantly say they have. Yet in all their conflicts they get involved with, you only see their older equipment involved. They may have a hypersonic program but I have serious doubts it is as advanced as they say it is.
The same reason why we weaponise AI and even space ("space is a warfighting domain") is because humans are still competing with each other for survival in 2020. And instead of starting a Pentagon equivalent for a global peace plan we spend all our money and attention towards more war fighting, more destruction......and now these idiots who have ruined, disfigured and completely terminated MILLIONS of lives (including vast numbers of civilians!) are exporting our death and destruction philosophy into space. Not in my name you morons!!
Our species is beyond insane. "Space a warfighting domain" is the essence of human misery .the douche who came up with this has no sense of what he or she does to the future of humanity. And the recklessness with how they do it. Without consulting 99.999% of humans. They just declare and we all will suffer the consequences.
Lol... Run along
Not gonna get much traction here pal...
The freakin website is called WAR NEWS UPDATES...

Peace has never been. Its an ideal not practiced by any life form. War is forever.
Last anon.. you're correct. I too believe any life form - by design - is meant to destroy/literally devour other life and non-life matter. It is a scary idea, but I have not seen life that does not kill other life. Even your own immune system - while you sit still - kills millions of bacteria and virii any given day. And they too try to kill you.
Ahhhh bless. God certainly enjoys misery.
