The MiG-25’s speed is limited to Mach 2.83 but it could reach a maximum speed of Mach 3.2 or more with the risk of engine damage. Service ceiling: 20,600 m (67,600 ft)

The Sprint ABM in the 70’s attained that speed and carried an enhanced neutron W66 warhead.

That is immaterial to the ability to use the system.

Exactly. “hypersonic missile with low radar signature and highly maneuverable capabilities” is BS. Hypersonic speed and maneuverability do not go together, especially in an atmosphere.

“I would be really surprised to learn that it detonates at faster than 1,500 mph.”
I’ve tracked countless reentry vehicles. They are far going faster than 1500mph on splashdown.

A thermonuclear explosion occurs in milliseconds.
Ballistic warheads are moving faster then this Missile.
