The US Secretary of the Army revealed that the hypersonic missile developed by the United States has an accuracy of 6 inches

In his speech at the Association of the U.S. Army meeting, US Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy stated that the Pentagon's hypersonic missiles hit targets within 6 inches. He said in his speech at the virtual opening ceremony on October 13th, "The error of hypersonic missiles hitting targets is only 6 inches.

A statement released on the day of testing stated that the Universal Hypersonic Glider (C-HGB) was launched at hypersonic speeds and flew to the "designated impact point". The flight speed of hypersonic weapons is even faster than Mach 5, much faster than the speed of sound, and they can maneuver between different altitudes and azimuth angles, making them more difficult to detect. The C-HGB consists of nuclear warheads, guidance systems, cables, and thermal shields, and will serve as a base for the Pentagon's offensive hypersonic missiles. All military branches are developing suitable launch systems. The US Army is developing ground launch capabilities and plans to provide soldiers with battery sized hypersonic weapons by 2023. Lockheed Martin is a major weapons integrator for mobile truck systems, and Power Technology Solutions was the first company to learn how to manufacture gliders for production.

Neil Thurgood said in an interview with Defense News before the Australian conference that the Army is preparing to conduct another flight test in the third quarter of fiscal year 2021, followed by a second flight test in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022. Then there will be two flight tests in the third quarter of FY22, Thurgood added. He said: "So we are now starting to accelerate the flight test. The Army plans to deliver a hypersonic missile and launcher to a unit in the fourth quarter of FY21. According to the Associated Press, six days ago, Russia reported that its zircon hypersonic missile successfully test fired, saying it hit a target in the Barents Sea. China and Russia are actively developing and testing their hypersonic missile capabilities.
