[Regnum] The United States of America conducted a test launch of the Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile. This was reported on February 19 by the US Space Force base.

It is specified that the launch was carried out from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California.

“An unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile was launched as part of an operational test at 01:00 Pacific Time on February 19 (12:00 Moscow time - Ed.),” the statement said.

Earlier, on December 22, the US Department of Defense confirmed the successful testing of two new long-range missiles, the LRHW (Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon) and the PrSM (Precision Strike Missile). They are designed to counter Russia in Europe and China in the Asia-Pacific region.

In late July, a US military official announced a test launch of a hypersonic weapon, which he said would be an important step in developing operational hypersonic technology.

The War Zone portal wrote on July 30 that the results of the test of the hypersonic weapon being developed by the US in Florida are unknown. Experts in a conversation with the publication specified that the US Army could have tested the Dark Eagle weapon system, which is also known as the Long Range Hypersonic Weapon (LRHW).
