Hypersonic & Ballistic Missiles Do Not Give Chance To Enemy

Hypersonic & ballistic missiles do not even give a chance to the enemy, know what is the difference.

There is a constant response from Japan, South Korea, and America regarding the hypersonic missile test conducted by North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.

There is no doubt that this missile test has increased the concern of these countries. In the past decades, Kim Jong Un has appeared to be a major threat to the entire Korean Peninsula and other countries.

There is no doubt that if this missile test of North Korea is successful, then it is its big achievement. But on the other hand, two things are coming out about this.

Actually, South Korea’s news agency Yonhap has described this missile as a ballistic missile. At the same time, North Korea has described it as a hypersonic missile.

The question is, what was this? This is because there is a big difference between the two.

According to the information given about North Korea’s missile, this missile successfully hit the target after traveling a distance of about 700 km.

Nothing has been said about its speed. Let us tell you that the biggest difference between hypersonic and ballistic missiles is their speed and their height in the sky.

Here it is also very important to know that both the missiles come out of the earth’s atmosphere and reenter and attack their enemy.

The speed of these missiles is so high that the enemy does not get a chance to recover.

At the same time, due to anti-space, they are not able to come on the enemy’s radar. For both reasons, such missiles are counted among the most lethal missiles.

Where hypersonic missiles go above the speed of about 5–10 Mach ((3800 m per hour) while tearing the chest of the sky), the speed of ballistic missiles is much higher, about 15 Mach (15000 m per hour).

You can also guess this speed from the fact that an aircraft or fighter jets fly only at a speed of 1-2 Mach.

There is also a big difference between these two types of missiles that where the hypersonic missile goes up to a height of a few km in space.

While the ballistic missile goes to an altitude of 800 to 1200 miles and then comes back to the earth’s atmosphere.

It is a long-range guided weapon and hits its target after traveling thousands of kms.

The ballistic missile is launched into the parabolic trajectory and its warhead destroys its enemy after re-entry into the earth’s atmosphere with great speed.

There is also a big difference in the length of hypersonic and ballistic missiles. Ballistic missiles are much longer than hypersonic missiles. It can be up to 36-40 feet.

Apart from all the five nuclear-weapon states of the world, India also has hypersonic missiles. India has the world’s fastest-moving hypersonic missile, BrahMos. This scramjet engine gives this speed.
