C-HGB launch

A common hypersonic glide body (C-HGB) was launched from the Pacific Missile Range Facility, Kauai, Hawaii, on 19 March 2020, at approximately 22:30 local time (HST) (20 March, ~08:30 UTC). The flight experiment was jointly executed by the U.S. Navy and U.S. Army and was reported by the U.S. Department of Defense to have been successful: C-HGB “flew at hypersonic speed to a designated impact point”. In January 2020, the U.S. Air Force performed a hot fire test of X-60A, “an air-launched rocket designed for hypersonic flight research” Credits: Department of Defense/U.S. Air Force/U.S. Navy #HypersonicFlight
