Dark Eagle: The Army Wants a Mach 5 Hypersonic Missile That Can Strike from 1,725 Miles Away

Also known as "Dark Eagle," this is a medium-range, surface-to-surface hypersonic missile with two main parts – the missile itself, and a glide body. Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman are developing the missile component of the LRHW, while Dynetics is building the unpowered Common-Hypersonic Glide Body (C-HGB).
