North Korea Acknowledges Testing Hypersonic Missile
---------------------------------------------------

North Korea is claiming it carried out a successful hypersonic missile
test. State media said the missile hit a target more than 400 miles
away. North Korea carried out a similar test in September. While the
Biden administration condemned North Korea's test, the U.S. is spending
billions of dollars investing in hypersonic missile technology - as are
Russia and China.
