Hypersonic weapon

A hypersonic weapon is a weapon that can travel and make significant sustained maneuvers during atmospheric flight at hypersonic speed, which is defined as above Mach 5 (five times the speed of sound). These typically fall into two main categories: hypersonic glide vehicles (boost-glide weapons), and hypersonic cruise missiles (airbreathing weapons).
