Considering the shock wave that must precede something traveling that fast, I would doubt that a bird would ever collide with such a craft or missile.

Supersonic means ahead of the shockwave. It can and will get there long before the shockwave. Of course, birds wont be at 80,000 or 90,000 feet

A bird strike at that speed would release energy like an explosive, so save the mach 6 for +100,000. In more dense atmosphere, the airframe will melt or cook the interior.

Considering the shock wave that must precede something traveling that fast, I would doubt that a bird would ever collide with such a craft or missile.At that speed it would be in the upper atmosphere far above any bird. Drag and heat would destroy the craft at a lower level in the atmosphere
