Air-launched balloons will be America's newest weapon against China and Russia's hypersonic missiles.

In recent months, both Beijing and Moscow have tested hypersonic weapons with growing concern from the US administration, which is now considering taking action.

In response, the US is considering deploying balloons, which can fly between 18 and 27 kilometers in height, so they can also be used to detect hypersonic missiles.

For years, the United States has conducted balloon tests to gather information, provide support for ground troops or fix problems with satellites.

The Pentagon has spent about $3.8 million on high-flying balloon projects over the past two years. Not only that, but they plan to spend an additional $27.1 million to continue working on new experiments, according to budget documents./ CNA.al
