On March 19, it became known that the United States had successfully tested an air-launched hypersonic weapon. It was carried out in the Pacific Ocean.

This was reported by the US Air Force. At the same time, it is not yet known what the speed of this hypersonic weapon is.

What is known about the tests

According to available information, the tests themselves were carried out on Sunday, March 17th. Then a B-52 bomber took off from Guami, after which it fired an ARRW missile.

As noted by Reuters, the US Air Force called the test successful. At the same time, they did not disclose the weapon’s flight speed. In previous tests, the ARRW missile is known to have flown at speeds that were at least five times the speed of sound.

Please note that the United States is not the only one developing hypersonic weapons, whose high speed and maneuverability make it difficult to track and intercept them.< /p>

Meanwhile Ukraine needs long-range weapons, which will allow us to destroy the enemy and his logistics. In particular, it talks about ATACMS and Taurus.

Senator Graham said that Ukraine will receive ATACMS

March 18, Senator Lindsey Graham arrived on a visit to Kyiv. He also gave a briefing at which he spoke about weapons for Ukraine.

This is what I hope will happen in 2024. America will send weapons to Ukraine that you desperately need, and in the future you will begin to not only hold territory, but also put further pressure on the Russians in 2024, you will receive ATACMS and destroy the bridge that connects Crimea to Russia. “I want 2024 to be a year of qualitative advantage for the Ukrainian military,” he said.

Lindsey Graham also mentioned in his speech about ammunition and Western F-16 fighters. He added that our state should receive more 155-mm caliber shells, which we are sorely lacking. And that we will probably be able to attract F-16s this year.

The senator also expressed admiration for the Ukrainian people, for whom everyone predicted imminent defeat in February 2022. At the same time, he noted that it is necessary to adopt a bill on mobilization so that the Armed Forces of Ukraine have fresh forces.
