JUST IN: Army to Field Hypersonic Weapon in Fall 2023, Secretary Says

U.S. Army

The U.S. Army is currently developing its first Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon system, with the first battery to be delivered by fall 2023, said Secretary of the Army Christine Wormuth.

In the midst of growing tensions in the Indo-Pacific, the U.S. military continues to prepare for a potential conflict in that region. While she does not believe that a war with China is unavoidable, Wormuth said  preparedness is key.

“We all need to be really focused on deterring that possibility,” she said at an Aspen Security Forum panel in Aspen, Colorado, July 20.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
