re: U.S Patriot missile defense system shoots down Russias Hypersonic missile.

The Russians have been touting the "Kinzhal" as a "hypersonic" missile but it really just follows a ballistic path and most ballistic missiles go hypersonic in their reentry phase. They do not meet the current definition of hypersonic missiles (able to maneuver at hypersonic speed) and this is becoming apparent. The Kinzal aka Carrier Killer is just another propaganda Potemkin village.
