The US To Arm Zumwalt-Class Ships With Hypersonic Weapons Amid Tensions With Putin’s Russia & Xi’s China

With this move, Pentagon aims to increase its capabilities at sea and counter possible Chinese and Russian threats. The Zumwalt-class destroyers would be the first US naval platform to be armed with hypersonic weapons.
