Hyper Velocity Gliding Projectile (HVGP) (島嶼防衛用高速滑空弾, Tōsyobōeiyō-kōsoku-kakkūdan) is a Japanese hypersonic glide vehicle being intended to be used as a hypersonic weapon in defending of remote islands. [1] [2]
China. Chinese DF-ZF hypersonic glide vehicle mounted on the DF-17 ballistic missile.. DF-ZF (developed and deployed) / Mach 5–10 [5]; GDF-600 (concept) In addition to a unified payload the Guangdong Aerodynamic Research Academy claims to be exploring fitting the conceptual weapon with various submunitions including what it calls a patrol projectile.
The Silbervogel was the first design for a hypersonic weapon and was developed by German scientists in the 1930s, but was never constructed. [6]The ASALM (Advanced Strategic Air-Launched Missile) was a medium-range strategic missile program developed in the late 1970s for the United States Air Force; the missile's development reached the stage of propulsion-system testing, test-flown to Mach 5 ...
This category should contain hypersonic missiles that are not clearly defined as cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, or hypersonic glide vehicles. Subcategories This category has only the following subcategory.
BrahMos-II: hypersonic missile (under development) Pinaka: guided rockets (Pinaka Mk1 unguided & MK2 guided rockets, Pinaka Mk III in development) DRDO SAAW: precision guided anti airfield bomb; DRDO ULPGM (UAV Launched Precision Guided Missiles) Rudram family air-to-surface missile Rudram-I: air-to-surface anti-radiation missile (under testing)
[3] [4] This combination of both MFoVs and WFoVs are crucial as normal radars may miss fast-moving advanced missile technologies such as the Russian-made Avangard and Chinese-made Starry Sky-2, which are Hypersonic Glide Vehicles (HGVs). [2] The current phase of the HBTSS program is in protype stage and lacks operational capability. [1]
The Common-Hypersonic Glide Body was tested in March 2020. [11] [12] LRHW subsystems were tested at Project Convergence 2022 (PC22). [25] [26] On 28 June 2024, the DoD announced a successful recent end-to-end test of the US Army's Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon all-up round (AUR) and the US Navy's Conventional Prompt Strike.
The second phase of the Hypersonic Weapon System development was to perform a set of flight tests with a series of boost-glide Hypersonic Technology Vehicles (HTVs). [12] HTV-1: a low performance hypersonic glider, originally planned to fly in September 2007, now canceled because it was found not possible to manufacture the leading edges. [13]
