Loading ...CENTCOM is looking to deploy a hypersonic missile to the Middle East for “possible use against Iran,” per Bloomberg.
The request would mark the first deployment of its kind, with the U.S. still lagging behind Russia and China in hypersonic missile capability.
The move to deploy the U.S.’s Dark Eagle hypersonic system, still under production and not yet declared operational, by the way, comes after the IRGC reportedly moved its launchers beyond the range of precision strike missiles.
