Re:US hypersonic missile fails in test- 2nd consecutive fail... by superkuh on Sunday July 03, 2022 @11:33AM (#31968466)
Yeah, ICBMs have slightly glidy, menuevering entry vehicles. But these don't fly. It's more like falling with style. And they certainly don't have shapes that aren't simple conicals. Otherwise the heat from compression and where the shockwaves impinge on the complex structure completely overcomes materials tech and any possible heat soak or re-radiation.
