Hypersonic glide vehicles and hypersonic cruise missiles compress warning timelines and undermine traditional radar-based air and missile defence architectures by flying low, manoeuvring unpredictably, and exploiting line-of-sight constraints. For European planners, the problem is no longer theoretical: without persistent space-based infrared sensing capable of detecting launches and tracking high-speed glide trajectories in near real time, layered defence concepts risk entering the engagement cycle too late.
