The Pentagon showed a video of tests of components for a hypersonic missile developed for the benefit of the US Navy and Army. The related video is posted on YouTube.

The title of the video states that the respective missile launch took place from the Virginia coast.

According to Reuters, tests evaluated the weapon’s navigation equipment and communications performance, as well as advanced heat-resistant materials in a realistic hypersonic environment.

According to open data, it may be related to the Navy’s Conventional Rapid Attack (CPS) and the Army’s Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon (LRHW) projects. In particular, the task of the two-stage (without the warhead) LRHW surface-launch missile will be to defeat enemy targets at a depth of approximately 2,300 kilometers in the A2/AD (anti-access and area denial) zone.
