The U.S. was once a leader in developing supersonic and hypersonic technology, but we've now fallen behind Russia, China and possibly North Korea. Here's how we're spending billions to catch up. Full video:

Hypersonic air travel, for both military and commercial use, could be here within the decade.

"If you are traveling at hypersonic speeds, you're, you're going more than a mile per second," said Mark Lewis, executive director of the National Defense Industrial Association's Emerging Technologies Institute. "That's important for military applications. It could have commercial applications. It could also open up new, new ways of reaching space."

Significant hypersonic research and development in recent years have highlighted its promising opportunity, but it's also shed light on its destructive potential. According to, hypersonic technology creates a new class of threat that could change the nature of warfare. China, Russia and now North Korea all claim to have developed and successfully tested hypersonic missiles. Unlike traditional ballistic missiles that follow a set trajectory after launch, hypersonic weapons are maneuverable in flight, incredibly fast and hard to detect.

We do need to invest more in hypersonic tech, but we aren’t really behind overall. It depends on what specific things you’re looking at. We also need more aerospace, engineering, materials science and math graduates.

they are taking a break studying the extraterrestrial hypothesis within the world of black budget special access programs .. because you will need more than hypersonics in the new world order UFOTwitter uaptwitter UFOs UAPs UFO UAP💬

The Americans keep electing presidents that are literally 'foot-in-the grave'. Where are the young fire in the blood politicians gone? And I am not talking about Ocasio-Cortez variety!

But but climate change 🤡

We haven't fallen behind. Especially not to Russia and North Korea...

Don’t worry though, we’ll send $100 billion to Ukraine and billions more to big pharma.

Stop playing political games, soon you’ll catch up

Why would I want to go to london?

Have we really or is that what they want us to think 🤔

I doubt seriously we’ve fallen behind Russia. Russia’s trouble beating Ukraine is evidence of that misguided statement. My sense is CNBC is carrying the water again for the military lobbyist like they did during Covid and the pharmaceutical companies. CNBC is shameless. shame

😂😂 we are not behind! X-15 was MANNED hypersonic in the 60's Did we de-prioritize? Partially, in manned hypersonics.. due to prioritizing stealth... But not in weapons systems Could we've spent more? Absolutely...But again prioritizing stealth was correctly our focus!

I bet whatever we have is pretty top secret, maybe we have more than the fake news would ever admit, they are so eager to make USA look like declining loosers to glorious China, winning Russia and not a nuke power North Korea

Most of it thanks to our corrupt politicians, going to bed with CCP spies, keeping emails in places or server not allowed etc etc, CNBC and the rest of the fake news media will look the other way

We've fallen behind Russia? ha ...good one.

LOL but where does all that spending go? 🤔

Oh

Golly - I wonder where NoKo could have gotten that tech..

Fearmongering!

We’re spending billions on work helicopter checks instead.

Spending money on others than our own

We spent the budget in Iraq/ Afgan.

Of course we should be worried about Hypersonic missiles. The Chinese and Russians will kick our butts if we dont stop dilly dallying at the WH.

Teleport could be here within a decade also, similar odds

Tell us this when its ready, not 1 decade early

Like. Of course, with HyperCapSoc, Everything-Travel is Very Important. Again, remember, there are no Thumb-Wars after NICs. This is it. This is our Entertainment: Crowded Airports.

Too bad China already beat us by a decade.

Ppl who worked at area 51: could've been here decades ago

Os outros já estão a falar de viagens hipersónicas, enquanto que nós ainda temos dificuldade para obter água canalizada... 🤗

Behind North Korea? How much money can fix this?

keep throwing money at Musk and NFT monkeys will rule the country 😅
