A U.S.-developed hypersonic missile hit within 6 inches of its target in a test earlier this year, Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy said, highlighting a major breakthrough for the military’s race to develop hypersonic weapons.
In a speech at the Association of the U.S. Army conference Tuesday, Mr. McCarthy shed some light on a joint Army and Navy hypersonic glide body flight test from March that he said marked a significant feat.
“Hypersonic missiles are hitting their targets with a variance of only a mere 6 inches,†Mr. McCarthy said.
