I would say yes the ground launched hypersonic missile the USA successfully tested can go 1,725 miles in less than 30 minutes no weapon in the us inventory can do this with this much survivability

Thank God it is just a British tank designer. I thought you were going insane

@nukularpictures these weapons are intended to take high value targets such as sam sites, generals and time sensitive targets all of which can potentially cause alot of damage if left alone. The one I mentioned hit within six inches of target so tracking isn't an issue you also don't need as big of a warhead when you have both the kinetic energy of the warhead and with that level of accuracy. Obviously they are not going to be sending these by the hundreds but they don't really need to they just need it "kick down the door" on a heavily defended target and let the sub sonic missile do their work. This will be invaluable for going up against sites like s400

@andrewdoesyt7787 not necessarily even the best Sam sites only have a range of a few hundred miles you would need a high altitude system parked very close for it to be put into a position to hit the hypersonic glide vehicle when it is going up. Something that is very unlikely given the 1,000- 1,725 mile range

@nukularpictures the s500 is a ballistic missile threat not a hypersonic glide vehicle. SAM site rarely move every 30 minutes it just isn't practical for it to constantly move that much. No car moves forever and most high ranking military members are generally in bunkers with Sam sites around them

@stachowi that is always as practical as hypersonic on trucks
