actual hypersonic missiles haven’t made it to the battlefield

Really? Then how come Russia has had them in service since 2017 and China deployed theirs in 2019? This is just cope from western "military experts" online that can't deal with the fact that Russia and China have better missiles than America.

Again, not a military expert, but have you been living under a rock for several years and missed this whole Ukrainian "special military operation"?

Russia's hyped Kinzhal missiles, which promised to defeat air defence systems and be manoeverable at supersonic speeds are being shot down by 80's era surface to air missiles. And I don't think anyone has been in a position to assess China's capabilities in the matter and I have no interest in discussing your beliefs.

Edit: forgot to say this really has nothing to do with advanced lithography, anyways…

There's no proof of this ever happening, Ukraine hasn't been able to provide evidence of shooting down even ONE kinzhal.

Also, this has nothing to do with China's hypersonic missiles.

https://www.nytimes.com/live/2023/05/16/world/russia-ukraine-news make what you want of it, as I said, this is off-topic.

US officials also confirmed Iraq's WMDs and babies being thrown off incubators, I need hard evidence for it happening since their word is worth less than trash.

...Also we literally have video evidence that they lied about shooting down the Kinzhal back in May (the event you just linked):

The people who recorded this video were arrested by the Kiev regime for being "saboteurs" too, Ukrainians exposing their own government's lies is a crime 🤣

They also lied and denied that their Patriot missile system was hit but it mysteriously never shot a single missile after that… hmmm…. It’s almost like Ukraine and NATO are liars and you are stupid if you believe them

No khinzals have been shot down, not a single one
