A top Space Force general is warning the U.S. is trailing in a key frontier of modern warfare after China and Russia both successfully launched hypersonic missile in the last week.
“We’re not as advanced as the Chinese or the Russians in terms of hypersonic programs,” Gen. David Thompson, vice chief of space operations, told the Halifax International Security Forum on Saturday.
China launched a hypersonic missile that circled the globe before demolishing a target while Russia launched its own similar missile from a warship in the Arctic.
The United States isn’t set to launch it own hypersonic missile until 2024.
Hypersonic missiles travel about five times the speed of sound and currently can’t be tracked by radar.
The Space Force is trying to “figure out the type of satellite constellation that we need” to track these missiles, Thompson told Politico in an interview after his speech Saturday. “It’s a new challenge, but it’s not that we don’t have an answer to this challenge. We just have to understand it, fully design it, and fly it.”

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
