“The United States successfully shot down a hypersonic missile in a recent test, showcasing its missile defense capabilities. On 24 March, the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) and the U.S. Navy conducted the ‘Stellar Banshee’ test off Hawaii’s coast. A Medium Range Ballistic Missile (MRBM) with a Hypersonic Target Vehicle (HTV) was tracked and virtually intercepted by the USS Pinckney. The test, part of ongoing efforts to counter hypersonic threats, also involved the Hypersonic and Ballistic Tracking Space Sensor (HBTSS) satellite. MDA Director Lt. Gen. Heath Collins highlighted the importance of defeating hypersonic missiles for national defense.”
