U.S. Achieves Breakthrough with Dark Eagle Hypersonic Missile Test

The U.S. Army and Navy successfully conducted an end-to-end flight test of a conventional hypersonic missile at Cape Canaveral, marking a significant milestone in the development of advanced weapon systems. This test, the second successful one this year, involved the Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon system and demonstrated the missile's capabilities, including speed, range, and maneuverability. The collaboration between the Army and Navy aims to rapidly field land and sea variants of the hypersonic weapon, supporting the National Defense Strategy and enhancing joint warfighting capabilities.
