US Army Abandons Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon Test: Report

The US Army has reportedly canceled another test of its Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon (LRHW) at the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida due to pre-flight checks. The LRHW, developed in coordination with the US Navy, is a ground-launched missile equipped with a hypersonic glide body and has a reported range of 1,725 miles. The Army aims to deploy the LRHW by the end of the year, while the Navy plans to use the same missiles on its Zumwalt-class stealth destroyers and Block V Virginia-class submarines.
