Why do you think you're right?

The criteria seem confusing.  The Navy has long had hypersonic defensive missiles (SM-3 and SM-6) and the Army fields THAAD.  Some these are above Mach 8 and can maneuver.  Hypersonic glide weapons are already deployed by China, and we should be not far behind.

Why might you be wrong?

The specific offensive programs are expensive and require extensive testing.  Even White Sands may be too limited to achieve full certification.  These programs always go over time and budget.

Why do you think you're right?

Moderate chance in next week of commitment.  Negotiations are going nowhere, assignment of Russian assets to Ukraine blocked, and Putin rattling sabers at Baltics.

Why might you be wrong?

Europe always reticent to commit.  May take a while to get consensus needed.
