<< The missile, part of the Force Development Evaluation Program, lifted off at 2:29 a.m. and the re-entry vehicle traveled 4,800 miles in about 30 minutes hitting pre-determined targets in the western chain of the Marshall Islands in the Pacific Ocean, the Air Force said in a news release. >>



9,600 mph? Holy sh!t that's fast! I thought they were more in the range of mach 5.
