Hypersonic missiles are creating one of the toughest challenges for modern air defence systems. Travelling beyond Mach five, they combine extraordinary speed with unpredictable manoeuvres and lower flight paths that can delay radar detection. Extreme atmospheric heating can also produce plasma around the weapon, further complicating tracking and communication. Conventional interceptors depend on calculating where a target will be, but even a small late course change can disrupt that solution. In this episode, we explore why militaries are racing to develop new technologies capable of countering the growing hypersonic threat.
