3. United States' AGM-183A ARRW
America's dedication to create modern hypersonic capabilities is shown by the AGM-183A Air-Launched Rapid Response Weapon (ARRW). Developed by Lockheed Martin, this boost-glide weapon system marks a major progress in American military technology. Launched from aeroplanes, the ARRW offers before unheard-of degree of deployment possibilities. It keeps outstanding manoeuvrability along its flight path and can reach speeds more than Mach 20. The complex guiding mechanism of the system guarantees accuracy targeting even at very high speeds. The ARRW's fast response capacity—which lets it reach targets hundreds of kilometres distant in minutes—makes it especially remarkable. Extensive testing and validation procedures have been part of the creation of the weapon, proving American will to keep technological superiority in hypersonic warfare.
