Eagle.

This is coolbert:

A headline most surprising. From Zero Hedge and Tyler Durden and thanks to same.

1. "US Nuclear Unit In Germany Reactivates With 'Dark Eagle' Hypersonic Missiles"

"Much attention lately has been focused on a series of Chinese hypersonic weapons tests. Let's now shift our attention to the US and Russia, where the Pentagon has reactivated a nuclear unit, based in Mainz-Kastel, western Germany, that will soon be able to launch 4,000 mph hypersonic weapons aimed at Moscow"

Dark Eagle as designated the American hypersonic missile already in the inventory and now ready to go, fielded with unit reactivation?

NO! See further from Popular Mechanics.

2. "Say Hello to 'Dark Eagle,' the Army’s New Hypersonic Weapon"

As to Dark Eagle:

"With a range of 1,723 miles [about 2,700 kilometers], this bad boy has the capability to strike deep into China".

"The U.S. Army has named its new land-based hypersonic weapon system 'Dark Eagle.' The service is 'confident' that the weapon will enter service in 2023. Once it does, Dark Eagle will give the Pentagon a land-based, long-range capability that can cover the scope of Asia, striking deep into the Chinese heartland at speeds in excess of Mach 5."

Black Eagle as of yet not a going concern. Unit ready but not the missiles. Black Eagle still in test stage only to be entering the inventory by 2023 it is hoped.
