Or, according to some Ukrainian parliamentarians, shot out of the sky by a Patriot missile.

Not an ICBM they say, Oreshnik a Russian intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) but a Non-Nuclear test

Over human history they thought it was supposed to evolve slowly, evolved in a slow step by step, very carefully and slowly, guys chuck a rock or throw a spear, then another civilization another Empire another Kingdom and Nation learns how to use metal and put guy's on horse back give them swords and shield. New forms of carriages, tanked up structures, boats with canon fire, a new revolution of warfare...WW2 ends it looks like the USA is on top?

but then Chuck Yeager was supposed to come along post WW2 and go past Mach 1

from space it is thought you can go at least 36.4 Mach, not Mach 1

Mach 1 was impressive but...

but the Russians also had tech after WW2, in 1949 they test a Nuke, they also have a Nuclear Weapon and cheated by putting this out there with rocketry faster, into space, a dog went to space and putting possible missile technology on top of a rocket.

The U.S. Military's Secret Speed Weapon: 90-Knot Super Carriers!


90-knot supercarriers can't outrun Mach 10 antiship missiles.

If this us for real, it shows you what's wrong with the USA military.

*****

Watching war play out in Ukraine and Israel, I think war is evolving to missile and drone war. Also, I think its easier to play offense than defense, bc no matter how good your defense it can always be overwhelmed by decoys and drones. And only a few need to get thru to do damage.

This applies to nuclear tipped missiles of ANY range: There is no defense. The only defense is deterrence, and treaties.
