The United States and Japan have signed a contract to jointly develop a hypersonic missile interceptor over the next 10 years, with Japan allocating $480 million for the project in its 2024 budget.

The United States and Japan are planning to create an interceptor capable of shooting down hypersonic missiles. Work on this project is scheduled for ten years - in accordance with the contract signed by the two countries. This was reported by Kyodo, UNN reports.

Details

The Japanese government has already included $480 million in its 2024 budget.

Hypersonic missiles fly at more than five times the speed of sound and have non-standard trajectories, making them difficult to intercept.

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has promised to double defense spending to NATO levels of two percent of GDP by 2027.
