The Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon (LRHW), also known as Dark Eagle[8] is a intermediate-range surface-to-surface boost-glide hypersonic weapon being developed for use by the United States Army. The United States Navy intends to procure a ship/submarine-launched variant of the missile as part of the service's Intermediate-Range Conventional ...
B-1B / B-52 / B-21 / F-15E [4] The AGM-183 ARRW ("Air-Launched Rapid Response Weapon") is [5] a hypersonic air-to-ground ballistic missile planned for use by the United States Air Force. Developed by Lockheed Martin, the boost-glide vehicle is propelled to a maximum speed of more than Mach 5 [6] by a rocket motor before gliding toward its ...
The Mako Multi-Mission Hypersonic Missile is a stand-off hypersonic missile developed by Lockheed Martin and CoAspire, specifically designed to fit in the internal weapons bay of the F-35A/C and F-22A. [1] It is the first hypersonic weapon compatible with a fifth-generation fighter. [2][3] The missile was unveiled in April 2024 at the Navy ...
F/A-18E/F Super Hornet. The Hypersonic Air Launched Offensive Anti-Surface (HALO) is a hypersonic air-launched anti-ship missile being developed for the United States Navy. [1] It is designed to provide greater anti-surface warfare capability than the AGM-158C LRASM and is expected to be compatible with F/A-18E/F Super Hornet. [2] The initial ...
OpFires. Operational Fires (abbreviated as OpFires) is a hypersonic ground-launched system developed by DARPA for the United States Armed Forces. [3] The system deploys a boost glide vehicle. The prime contractor for the program is Lockheed Martin. [4] The missile's range is thought to be up to 1,000 miles (1,609 kilometers).
Janes [3][4][5] & AFA [6] The AGM-158C LRASM (Long Range Anti-Ship Missile) is a stealth air launch anti-ship cruise missile developed for the United States Air Force and United States Navy by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). [7] Derived from the AGM-158B JASSM-ER, the LRASM was intended to pioneer more sophisticated ...
National missile defense (NMD) refers to the nationwide antimissile program the United States has had development since the 1990s. After the renaming in 2002, the term now refers to the entire program, not just the ground-based interceptors and associated facilities. A Payload Launch Vehicle (PLV) carrying a prototype exoatmospheric kill ...
The Hypersonic Air-breathing Weapon Concept (HAWC, pronounced "hawk") is a scramjet powered hypersonic air-launched cruise missile project at the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), [1] that had a successful hypersonic flight announced in September 2021. [2][3] It is a kinetic energy weapon, without an explosive warhead. [4]
