This past summer saw China's launch of a hypersonic missile. This delivery system involves a missile launch into space, but deploys a vehicle that cruises the atmosphere at hypersonic speeds throughout the globe. It is then maneuvered to a chosen target. The U.S. may not be ready when it comes to detecting, and intercepting a hypersonic launch and China may soon hold a significant strategic advantage. Retired generals Jack Keane and Keith Kellogg weigh in, as do former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Darryl Kimball from the Arms Control Association.
