"What is the range of hypersonic missiles and how far out from a carrier group can they be shot down?"

I don't think we are privy to THAT info. I do know that the Arleigh-Burke Destroyers have the most capable missile defense on the planet.

I just investigated and hypersonic missiles could/would hurt any fleet very badly. Even Arleigh-Burke destroyers would have a time of it, especially if they were used in swarms.

Hopefully we have something in space to deal with them.
