Its just a missile...

The new model is not yet capable of reaching hypersonic speeds.

...and not even hypersonic.

It looks like a 1950s Lockheed.

“A previous version, Quarterhorse Mk.0, was successfully tested on the ground in January 2024.”

Small world, I tested mine on the ground in December. ;^)

Here is a YouTube video of the "Real Engineering" channel visiting Hermeus.

They don't look crackpot.

Hermeus has raised around $100 million in funding, including sums from venture capital funds connected to prominent tech investors Sam Altman and Peter Thiel, as well as from the venture arm of aerospace giant RTX. It has also received $60 million from the US Department of Defense to further advance the development of hypersonic technologies, which have clear military uses.

......

Following this, the next step for Hermeus should be the development of an uncrewed hypersonic system called Darkhorse, which the company aims to potentially mass-produce for the US military.
