Tonight marks a dramatic escalation in the Iran-Israel conflict as Iran launched a hypersonic missile, one of the most advanced and dangerous weapons currently in existence.
The missile, believed to be a Fattah-2 Hypersonic model, is capable of flying at speeds exceeding 6,100 kilometers per hour (km/h) — far faster than conventional ballistic missiles.
Military experts note that hypersonic missiles:
• Are extremely difficult to intercept
• Can maneuver mid-flight, making their path unpredictable
• Travel at blazing speeds, reducing reaction time for air defense systems
• Carry high explosive payloads capable of devastating impact
The missile reportedly struck critical targets inside Israel, signaling a new and dangerous phase in the conflict. The use of such advanced weaponry underscores the potential for this war to expand into a regional or even global crisis.
