In the middle of the night in the New Mexico desert, a strange object moves far beyond the threshold of hypersonic speeds, rocketing along a 10-mile track in mere seconds.
While hard to make out even at half the speed, the item seen in the unique footage is a sled, part of the United States Air Force’s latest developments in defense technology.
The secretive tests, carried out in recent years and even breaking a few world records, have left even the most clever web sleuths pondering what the technology behind the experiments could be.
With Pentagon officials racing to get their hands on any kind of hypersonic weapons, it is unquestionable that the tests in the footage are no coincidence and even part of a much bigger endeavor…

Forget Hypersonic weapons! Hypersonic Sleds are the way to go! 🙂
Check out the channel {what you haven't seen} a watch an F4 Phantom Jet hit a concrete wall at 500 mph, It just disintegrates into dust.
ya but does it get 25 mpg when doing it? 🙂 🙂
WOW COOL
So, was it me or did the flame in one image look green?
How in the hell do those roller bearings not spontaneously combust at those speeds? Unless this is a MagLift kinda thing???
Another awesome video! This content is awesome!
I have been trying to find you for weeks! But never remembered the channel name. What happened to all the other videos????

5 seconds.
Some of the reddish-brown gas is oxides of nitrogen or NOx, forms above 2,200° in combustion
Jeez, man! I even tried slowing down the playback speed to .25 and still saw the same thing as the original speed!
They used to crash locomotives head-on. I'd like to see a collider!
