Literally best korea could do this.

Gay as fuck.

US is not lagging. They have a land based non ballistic POWERED surface to surface hypersonic missile, that sucessfully hit a target. Not this glider bullshit.

>>31812445
Finally, I am vindicated. Gliders are the future, gentlemen.

and? it's not weaponized. plus mach5 is fucking nothing when it comes to missiles.

>glider

I was under the impression that Sarmat uses Project Avangard alongside Rubezh IRBM and the train missile that starts with B.

>>31812139
they were building hypersonics years ago, even before China.

What a time to be alive.

The thing you're probably looking for is AHW Boeing X-51, and as of now it's still in early R&D stages. The US doesn't have engines to deliver into space their own satellites, much less propel a hypersonic glider.

>The US doesn't have engines to deliver into space their own satellites

Are you actually retarded enough to believe the US is currently technically unable to put sats up?

Voyevoda and Sarmat?

Which also means that US can't replace it's satellites if someone starts shooting them down.

>>31817570
We could have a real space program up and running in under 2 weeks if we actually fucking needed it.

Until then, who gives a shit the Russian rockets work and it's cheap.

If I decide mowing my lawn is a waste of my time, and decide to outsource mowing my lawn to my alcoholic neighbor on the cheap, it doesn't mean I have lost the ability to mow my lawn like I have constantly for the last 50 years.

Literally all ICBMs are hyper-sonic when they drop down on their target.

>>31812139
>Why are super-deadly things so pretty?!?!

Because they're stripped of all pretense. A missile is a perfect example of "form follows function".

Stuff made like that is usually pleasing to the eye.

Gettin real bored of these shit tier bait threads.

Nice.

Looks like the Yu-71 is coming along.

With the Chinese WU-14/DF-ZF also in advanced stage of testing, the days of America's smug superiority are numbered.

THAAD and SM-3s can suck dicks.

whats the matter, too scared?

>>31814943
I've always sort of liked gliders, in a remote kind of way.

All failures.

Just as Russia before this recent test.

Pull up maneuver from hypersonic vertical dive is.

It could not perform such maneuvers as a glider can, m8. Gyroscopes simply cant do that, they can only reduce 300m CEP to 30m, thats it.

Not happening rice dick.

>>31820729
AMARV has even tinier fins or no fins at all.

>>31817602
No you couldn't, it takes fucking years to develop real space programs
The US is in reality bureaucratically incapable of doing it, which is why they operated the shuttle for decades

They had a shuttle stuck up in orbit with a damaged heat shield, had 16 days endurance, and there was NOTHING they could send up in that time.
