🇺🇸🇮🇷John Kiriakou just dropped a real concern with hypersonic missiles attacking U.S. aircraft carriers: “We have to worry about hypersonic missiles and their use against aircraft carriers. The conventional wisdom is that an aircraft carrier cannot defend itself from a hypersonic missile. Can you imagine the fallout if the Iranians sunk the USS Abraham?” Source: John Kiriakou

#WATCH | ANI National Security Summit 2.0: DRDO Chairman Dr Samir V Kamat says, "For short-range ballistic missiles, the Pralay is now in the final stages of testing. With respect to hypersonic, we are working on two programs, the hypersonic glide missile and the hypersonic cruise missiles. The glide missile will come out first. We should be doing the first trials fairly soon. And that is at a more advanced stage than the cruise missile. The cruise missile program has not yet been sanctioned, although we are working on the various technologies which will get into the cruise missile..." "For short-range ballistic missiles, the Pralay is now in the final stages of testing and should be ready. Then we have some of our strategic missiles, which can be converted to tactical usage for the medium range and the long range. With respect to hypersonic, we are working on two programs, the hypersonic glide missile and the hypersonic cruise missiles. The hypersonic cruise missiles is one which has a scramjet engine and it is powered during its flight. The hypersonic glide missile is a missile which uses a booster to give it initial velocity, and then it just glides without any powering. The glide missile will come out first. We should be doing the first trials fairly soon. And that is at a more advanced stage than the cruise missile. The cruise missile program has not yet been sanctioned, although we are working on the various technologies which will get into the cruise missile. Recently, we have done a scramjet propulsion for more than 1,000 seconds. So that's been a major achievement, and once the program is sanctioned, we'll convert the scramjet propulsion into a working missile system. And I think that should take about five years after the sanction."

Russia appears to have suffered a failed intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) test after a launch from the Yasny range in the Orenburg region exploded just seconds after liftoff. Speculation suggests the missile may have been either an RS-28 “Sarmat” or a UR-100N, though it does not appear to have been equipped with the “Avangard” hypersonic glide vehicle (HGV). The incident took place at the Yasny launch site, which serves as both a cosmodrome and a base for Russia’s Strategic Missile Forces. It is one of the few facilities in the country capable of launching long-range missiles, including ICBMs designed to carry nuclear warheads.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷🇷🇺 Geopolitical Analyst Nima Rostami Alkhorshid reveals that a massive production gap in hypersonic technology is shifting the regional balance of power. While the U.S. deploys a limited number of expensive Dark Eagle missiles, Russia and China are manufacturing hundreds of cheaper units for mass saturation. This volume-based warfare capability may soon allow Iran to protect its strategic assets deeper underground than Western forces can reach. "The hypersonic missile capacity to produce is hundreds per year for mass saturation". Volume and cost-efficiency are defining the new era of modern warfare.

This is how the C-17 Globemaster III can descend from 30,000 feet to 5,000 feet in less than two minutes. This tactical descent profile allows the aircraft to remain at higher altitudes for as long as possible before making a rapid, steep descent into its destination. By doing so, the C-17 minimizes the time it spends within enemy air defense and missile engagement ranges, enhancing survivability in hostile environments. 📹: Raj 360

🇺🇸 U.S. Central Command has requested the deployment of Dark Eagle hypersonic missiles, for potential strikes on Iran. First, this is a big deal. The U.S. has never before used hypersonic (Mach 5 or greater) weapons in combat. The Dark Eagle is a precision offensive strike weapon that travels at over 3,800 mph, and can maneuver unpredictably mid-flight. Which makes it essentially impossible for existing missile defense systems to intercept. It has a range of over 1,650 mi, meaning it could reach Tehran from launch positions in the Gulf in minutes. The reason CENTCOM wants it now is that Iran has moved its ballistic missile launchers deeper into the country, beyond the reach of the current Precision Strike Missile (PrSM). Each hypersonic costs roughly $15 million, and there are no more than 8 available. Russia and China, it’s worth noting, have been deploying their own versions for years. Deploying it sends a message to Tehran, but also to Beijing and Moscow: America's hypersonic capability is finally here. Source: Combat Tech YT

Russia has launched another massive missile strike on Kyiv, but this time global attention is focused on one name — Oreshnik. Ukraine is now openly warning that Russia could deploy its new-generation hypersonic missile system, a weapon reportedly capable of reaching Mach 11 speeds during its terminal phase. That means a missile traveling at nearly 13,000 kmph — fast enough to severely challenge traditional air defence systems. In this video, we break down what the Oreshnik missile is, why hypersonic weapons are changing modern warfare, how the latest Kyiv strikes fit into the broader Russia-Ukraine escalation cycle, and why military analysts are increasingly worried about the global strategic consequences of these next-generation missile systems. #russia #missiles #MissileStrike #MissileDefense #nuclear #NuclearEnergy #RussiaUkraine

Strategic Bombers Are More Relevant Than Ever Decades ago, these aircraft had to fly directly over their targets to drop bombs. That era is over, and things have only gotten easier for them. Now they are standoff platforms capable of launching modern, heavy, long-range missiles (thousands of kilometers), including hypersonics, in large quantities, without ever entering contested airspace. This proves they are far from obsolete and have become massive flying weapons platforms. These bombers operate in squadrons, with missile ranges of 1,000–5,500 km (cruise) or around 2,000 km (hypersonic), devastating warheads, and launched in high numbers. Hypersonics like Kinzhal, YJ-21, and the future ARRW can evade modern defenses, while cruise missiles like JASSM and Kh-101 achieve saturation at a much lower cost. Russian glide bombs are being motorized to become an even cheaper option, and there are already configurations where bombers carry up to 20 glide bombs. Imagine 5 B-52H Stratofortress launching 20–24 stealth AGM-158 JASSM-ER missiles with 1,000 km range each. That’s over 100 missiles in a single salvo. Or 5 Tu-160M2 launching 6 Kh-47M2 Kinzhal each, or in another configuration up to 12 Kh-101 missiles per aircraft. If you want to go further: what navy could survive a squadron salvo from Chinese H-6 or H-20 launching 4–6 anti-ship hypersonic missiles with 1,500–2,000 km range? Strategic bombers are more relevant than ever and now operate much more safely. In the future, in possible larger conflicts, we’ll see waves of 20 bombers launching salvos of 150–250 missiles, overwhelming defenses and causing immense destruction. These platforms provide extended reach at a far lower cost than medium- or long-range ground launched missiles. Not to mention the low operating costs of the B-52, Tu-95, and H-6, with the latter probably having even lower costs. The trend is toward missiles and bombs with ever-greater range, lower cost, and modular designs to be launched from bombers. We can expect these aircraft to remain in service for at least another 20–30 years.

🚨🇵🇰 Pakistan missile program: Separating fact from fiction When the US intelligence chief flags Pakistan's missiles as a threat to America, the claim warrants scrutiny. Do the facts support this concern? Consider geography: Pakistan lies over 11,000 km from the US East Coast—a distance far beyond the range of its entire missile inventory Pakistan's current capabilities: 🔸 Shaheen-III – Medium-range ballistic missile (up to 2,750 km). Nuclear-capable. Pakistan's longest-range system. Tested 2021 🔸 Shaheen-1A – Short-range ballistic missile (up to 900 km). Nuclear-capable. Tested 2021 🔸 Abdali – Short-range ballistic missile (up to 450 km). Tested 2026 🔸 SMASH – Hypersonic anti-ship missile (up to 350 km). Unveiled 2026 🔸 Ra'ad-II – Air-launched cruise missile (up to 600 km). Nuclear-capable. In service since 2020 The math is simple: even the longest-range missile falls nearly 8,000 km short of US territory. This isn't a program oriented toward intercontinental reach, but one focused on regional deterrence

BREAKING; Stealth Giant Awakens: USS Zumwalt Heads to Sea Trials as World's First Hypersonic Missile Destroyer USS Zumwalt (DDG-1000), the lead ship of the U.S. Navy's stealthy Zumwalt-class destroyers, has recently begun sea trials after departing from Pascagoula, Mississippi. This marks a significant milestone as it is described as the world’s first destroyer configured to carry intercontinental-range missiles, specifically through integration of the Conventional Prompt Strike (CPS) hypersonic missile system. The Zumwalt-class was originally designed for naval surface fire support with advanced gun systems, but those were removed during refits starting around 2023–2024. The ship is now being repurposed for hypersonic strike capabilities. The CPS is a conventional (non-nuclear) hypersonic weapon system, featuring a two-stage solid rocket booster and a Common-Hypersonic Glide Body (C-HGB). It provides rapid, precise long-range strikes with intercontinental potential, comparable in reach to some ICBMs but without nuclear warheads.This upgrade allows the Zumwalt to launch these missiles from its large vertical launch system cells (originally 80 Mk 57 VLS cells, with modifications for Advanced Payload Modules). The class's stealth features, large size (over 15,000 tons displacement), and power generation make it an ideal platform for such advanced weapons.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 CENTCOM just asked to deploy the Army's Dark Eagle hypersonic missile to the Middle East for possible use against Iran The Dark Eagle is the U.S. Army's first deployed hypersonic weapon. Officially designated the Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon, it carries a glide body that travels at speeds above Mach 5, with a range exceeding 1,725 miles. It's designed to strike high-value, time-sensitive targets that current weapons can't reach in time or can't penetrate. Hardened underground facilities. Deeply buried command bunkers. Mobile missile launchers that move before conventional weapons can hit them. The system was officially declared operational only in 2025. There are extremely few of them in existence.
