China's top scientific institutions are initiating a research program focused on low-altitude hypersonic flight technology. This initiative, led by the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Institute of Mechanics, aims to overcome challenges such as extreme aerodynamic heating and guidance system disruptions. The goal is to potentially develop sea-skimming hypersonic missiles, which would pose a significant threat to naval forces like the US Navy, differing from current high-altitude hypersonic systems.
