I’ve never seen a missile travel at mach 5-10 or anything close

Every missile that takes something into orbit travels at the equivalent of about Mach 25.

Right. That’s a rocket. Which is why I am dubious about something that can travel that fast and far in the atmosphere.

You ever see the size of those rockets? How long before they achieve Mach 8? Something that big would be destroyed before it lifted off.
