Seems like it would just be simpler to use an ICBM,
then you’d be sure.

The picture posted is not of an ICBM launch in Alaska. That is the interceptor missile.

Hypersonic missiles are not viable yet, not even close.

How this could never be mistaken for a nuclear launch is very unclear.

Seems to me that a clandestine program to put a nuke on a hypersonic missile would be an obvious enhancement to the program. The Russians could never be sure it was conventional.
