    INTRODUCTION TO HYPERSONIC MISSILES MARKET

    Hypersonic missiles are designed to achieve a speed faster than Mach 5 (nearly 4000 miles per hour). They are considered to be deadly amalgamation of both ballistics as well as cruise missile. Missiles flying at high Mach number are not particularly new, but the novelty of hypersonic missile is manoeuvrable.

    Hypersonic missiles are under development in many countries like Australia, India, Japan and France, but the race is led by Russia, US and China. On strategic level, it’s a comparatively cost-effective means to strike the target with high probability of success.

     

    HYPERSONIC MISSILE MARKET SEGMENTATION

    Hypersonic Missile Market Segmentation By Type

     

    • HYPERSONIC BALLISTIC MISSILE

     It consists of two rockets, which helps in guiding the boost glide weapon from upper atmosphere to outer atmosphere, and warhead. After boost glide weapon reaches hypersonic speed, warhead get detached to hit the target. Missile has a ballistic trajectory over most of its flight path.

     

    • HYPERSONIC CRUISE MISSILE

      These missiles are unmanned self-propelled guided vehicle. They fly within the earth’s atmosphere. Many countries are working to develop hypersonic missiles.

     

     

    Hypersonic Missile Market Segmentation By Applicaation

     The functionality of hypersonic missiles depends largely on its guidance system.

     

    • WIRE GUIDANCE

     It is similar to radio command system. Commands are sent through thin wires dispensed from the missile after launch.

     

    • COMMAND GUIDANCE

     This system gives involves tracking of both missiles and target via radar, laser impulses or along thin wires or optical fibres.

     

    • TERRAIN COMPARISON GUIDANCE (TERCOM)

     This navigation system is primarily used by cruise missile. It uses radar altimeter to measure the profile of the ground and checks the result against pre-recorded contour map.

     

    • TERRESTRIAL GUIDANCE

     The system constantly measures the start angles and compare the results with the pre-programmed angles expected on the missiles’ intended trajectory.

     

    • INERTIAL GUIDANCE

    This system is installed within the missile and pre-programmed with the position, time, velocity and orientation of a missile prior to launch. It uses gyroscope with three accelerometer which measures the acceleration and then integrates it twice to measure velocity and its position. It is less accurate but inexpensive means of attaining fairly accurate fix location.

     

    • BEAM RIDER GUIDANCE

     It is mainly used in Surface to air missiles. This guidance system relies on the ship or external ground radar system that transmits the radar or laser beam to track the target and then sends guiding beam to adjust its angle as the target moves.

     

    • LASER GUIDANCE

    This system guides the missile to target the position by projecting the laser beam on it. Laser beam reflects off the target and gets scattered in all directions, called laser painting. Missiles are dropped off near target, laser seeker provides direction to the laser scatters to the guidance system.

     

    • RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) AND GPS REFERENCE

     Current advancement in guidance system are directed towards use of GPS to guide missiles to their targets. They have high navigational and surveying abilities, and most preferred by militaries across the world.

     

    Hypersonic Missile Market Segmentation By Geography

     

    • NORTH AMERICA

    During 2011, US launched successfully an Advanced Hypersonic Weapon that successfully struck a target located at 3700 km away.

     

    LOCKHEED MARTIN is developing maneuverable rocket launched aircraft called FALCON HYPERSONIC TECHNOLOGY VEHICLE-2.

     

    Since 2007, the United States has collaborated with Australia on the Hypersonic International Flight Research Experimentation (HIFiRE) program to develop hypersonic technologies. The most recent HIFiRE test, successfully conducted in July 2017, explored the flight dynamics of a Mach 8 hypersonic glide vehicle, while previous tests explored scramjet engine technologies. HIFiRE’s successor, the Southern Cross Integrated Flight Research Experiment (SCIFiRE) program, is to further develop hypersonic air-breathing technologies. In addition to the Woomera Test Range facilities—one of the largest weapons test facilities in the world—Australia operates seven hypersonic wind tunnels and is capable of testing speeds of up to Mach 30.

     

    • ASIA-PACIFIC REGION

    Since 2014, China has been making a Hypersonic Glide Vehicle (HGV) and Hypersonic Cruise Missiles (HCM). China’s DF-ZF is a hypersonic glide vehicle, which has undergone various development test between 2014-2016 and scheduled to be operational by 2020.The Chinese military has also been a ballistic missile power combined with HGV named DF-17.

     

    As a part of joint venture with India, Russia has also been working on Brahmos, a hypersonic cruise missile.

     

    India has similarly collaborated with Russia on the development of BrahMos II, a Mach 7 hypersonic cruise missile. Although BrahMos II was initially intended to be fielded in 2017, news reports indicate that the program faces significant delays and is now scheduled to achieve initial operational capability between 2025 and 2028. Reportedly, India is also developing an indigenous, dual-capable hypersonic cruise missile as part of its Hypersonic Technology Demonstrator Vehicle program and successfully tested a Mach 6 scramjet in June 2019 and September 2020. India operates approximately 12 hypersonic wind tunnels and is capable of testing speeds of up to Mach 13.

     

    Japan is developing the Hypersonic Cruise Missile (HCM) and the Hyper Velocity Gliding Projectile (HVGP). According to Jane’s, Japan invested $122M in HVGP in FY2019. It reportedly plans to field one HVGP warhead for neutralizing aircraft carriers and one for area suppression—both in the 2024 to 2028 timeframe. The warheads are expected to enter service in 2030. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency operates three hypersonic wind tunnels.

     

    • EUROPE

    Russia is the first to deploy Avangard, a Hypersonic Glide Vehicle. Another anti-ship Hypersonic Cruise Missile named 3M22 Zircon launched successfully in June 2017 and second Russian Hypersonic Cruise Missile, KH-47M2 Kinzhal is in development. Some miniaturized variant of Hypersonic cruise/ballistic missile like Mini Kinzhal, R-37 are under development.

     

    United Kingdom has expressed their interests to acquire hypersonic missile by 2025.

     

    Under the V-max (Experimental Maneuvering Vehicle) program, France plans to modify its air-to-surface ASN4G supersonic missile for hypersonic flight by 2022. It is believed that the V-max program is intended to provide France with a strategic nuclear weapon. France operates five hypersonic wind tunnels and is capable of testing speeds of up to Mach 21.
