When it comes to regional conflicts, many nations are wary of potential moves made by either Russia and China, with the two countries embroiled in their respective conflicts. With fears of a possible world war 3 on the rise, German media has reported that both countries are developing their own hypersonic arms.
According to German news outlet Die Welt journalist Gerhard Hegmann, Moscow and Beijing are already developing hypersonic weapons. This is the latest in the “spiral of threats” made to European security by Russia and China. Hegmann cited a previous incident that took place in the US military base in Ramstein, Germany, that showed how dangerous Russia’s arsenal would be. Hegmann explained that the base was informed of the Russian military’s intercontinental ballistic missile test and added that even if the US is prepared for potential threats, it would be almost impossible to deter a hypersonic weapon.
