US Congressional Research Service report on Hypersonic weapons says That the Russian and Chinese hypersonic missiles designed to be used with Nuclear warheads.
Target of A weapon that exceeds the speed of sound a lot more difficult to calculate from for Intercontinental ballistic missiles because of their maneuverability.
Outside of Russia, the United States and China, prof range of else countries They are developing hypersonic weapons including Australia, France, Germany, South Korea, North Korea and Japan, according to the US Congressional Research Service.
