The V2 rockets came late in the war when the German military was already broken and certainly the V2 rockets were not a match in destruction or effectiveness to the hundreds of planes raiding Germany day and night. V2 rockets were used because Germany lost its air power and they could not lunch effective airwar against the allies.

However back to present time we are still by far the most powerful and most dominant airpower in the world, and by far the most powerful and most dominant military in the world and this hypersonic plane is only going to leap us decades forward of our closest competition being ally or foe.

If your "leadership" lacks the will to use a weapon then it doesn't matter how advanced it is... particularly if your enemies know you lack the will.
