C HGB launch
A common hypersonic glide body (CHGB) was launched from the Pacific Missile Range Facility, Kauai, Hawaii, on 19 March 2020, at approximately 22:30 local time (HST) (20 March, 08:30 UTC). The flight experiment was jointly executed by the U. S. Navy and U. S. Army and was reported by the U. S. Department of Defense to have been successful: CHGB flew at hypersonic speed to a designated impact point. In January 2020, the U. S. Air Force performed a hot fire test of X60A, an airlaunched rocket designed for hypersonic flight research Credits: Department of Air Navy, HypersonicFlight
