The United States has created a hypersonic missile, which is faster than the Russian Avangard hypersonic missile system

In the USA, they developed a hypersonic missile, which turned out to be faster than the Russian Avangard.

A number of sources report that when developing the American hypersonic missile, it was possible to achieve significant superiority over the weapons of this type that Russia has. So, according to the data presented, an American hypersonic ballistic missile will be able to reach flight speeds of up to 35 MAX, which exceeds the speed of the Russian Avangard hypersonic missile system.

Nevertheless, experts doubted the sources, since the Lockheed Martin corporation will only announce the details of its own hypersonic weapons program between 14 and 16 of October this year, and therefore, the argument that the American missile is ahead of the Russian one in speed, so far it is very doubtful and unconvincing.

"The United States is still at the origins of the development of hypersonic weapons, and the likelihood that this country has managed to create a rocket that can generally overcome hypersonic speed, not to mention the fact that the latter will fly at a speed of 12 km / s," said Avia specialist .pro.

It should be noted that today there are no supersonic missiles in the arsenal of the United States, which is caused by a number of problems even with this technology.

I must say right away that I agree with you in evaluating the message. But the fact that this exceeds the 1-th cosmic speed is not proof yet. Theoretically, it is possible to fly in the atmosphere and at a higher speed - all in all, so that the lifting force of the wings is directed downward. A more serious objection is the source of energy to achieve such a speed. After all, it is known that it is impossible to create a single-stage launch vehicle with a rocket engine, reaching 1-th space speed. Even in low Earth orbit, satellites are launched at least in two stages. But here, theoretically, there are possibilities - after all, for an air-jet engine, it is not necessary to carry an oxidizing agent, it is taken from the atmosphere. Yes, and some kind of starting accelerator can be used. Another thing is how long it will be possible to maintain such a speed in the atmosphere, overcoming air resistance. But the main argument against is aerodynamic heating. The temperatures during such a flight at altitudes less than 70 km will be such that they exceed the refractoriness of any material. In addition, the plasma cloud will close the flow of any information to the homing head - radar, infrared, etc. As well as external control commands.

I’ll ask you to give an example of a hypersonic rocket ... All of the ones you cited are not!

Of course - this is all 3,14. What amerikosov that Putin. Since Soviet times, schoolchildren have known the first cosmic speed - 7,8 km / s. Here you have tales about some kind of hypersound. This, by the way 28000 km. in hour. That is approximately 28 max. Ah, how much chatter!

The ease with which the author operates with concepts such as "hypersonic and supersonic speeds" is striking, while arguing that the United States does not have supersonic missiles at all. This is only partly true if we mean cruise missiles (of the Tomahawk type). All ballistic and aeroballistic missiles / projectiles are supersonic or hypersonic (Trident, MX, ground and sea missile defense missiles).
