At the rate of fuel consumption required to carry a multiple warhead payload, how far can a hypersonic missile travel before it starts to cough and sputter? It would seem to me that these are for limited range use, not intercontinental. Anyone have knowledge of this subject?
these weapons are pretty bad arse, and we can only hope that the US defense is being a little coy with how far along they are.

I tend to believe the same. Nobody knew about the stealth fighter/bomber program until the first gulf war, 10 years after their first maiden flights. Truth be said, we probably have the same hypersonic weapons and possibly (hopefully) a defense against such an attack.
