Air Force delays hypersonic missile program after flight test 'anomalies'

Military analyst: Hypersonic missile tests are a counter to Putin's threats 01:07
(CNN)The Air Force delayed its hypersonic missile program by up to a year after "recent flight test anomalies" pushed back the schedule for the weapon's completion, according to a statement from the Air Force.

The AGM-183 Air-Launched Rapid Response Weapon (ARRW) was supposed to reach early operational capability, an important milestone in weapon testing and development, before October. But following a series of failures in flight tests last year, the Air Force postponed the first test of the complete missile and booster to sometime in the next fiscal year, which begins in October. More tests will follow later in the year, the Air Force said.
"The ARRW production decision remains event-driven and will occur after operational utility is demonstrated through successful system end-to-end flight tests," the Air Force said.

The ARRW missile, built by Lockheed Martin, is designed to destroy "high-value, time-sensitive targets," according to the Air Force. It is also supposed to enable the military to quickly strike a well-defended target on land.
The delay in the program, first reported by Bloomberg, comes as lawmakers have voiced growing frustration about the US falling behind adversaries like China and Russia in hypersonic weapons development.

You got your news wrong.

The one that was delayed was delayed last year and not today. By October it will be operational

The one tested this week was a different hypersonic weapon and it was carried out successfully.

The Americans knows how advanced the Russians are in terms of missiles.
They know Russia has what they don't and they don't have defence for hypersonic missiles.
Their press keep hyping them.
People that ran away from a rag tag military putting on sandals as footwear, leaving behind military worth billions.

The test your referring to was not successful but if I told you you won't believe it because you are caught up with your love for USA.
