Detection of Hypersonic Missiles in presence of Plasma Stealth

The hypersonic missiles are the type of missiles which can travel above Mach 5 that is 5 times the speed of sound. The hypersonic missiles with nuclear or non-nuclear warheads causes threat not only nationally but also globally. Due to their high speed, heat is produced which breaks down the molecules in the atmosphere causing formation of ionized gas layer called as Plasma stealth. So, it is very challenging to detect hypersonic missiles but few vulnerabilities of hypersonic missiles make it possible for its detection. The Plasma Stealth itself can be used to detect the hypersonic missiles. By detecting the Plasma footprint which will last for few milliseconds, the hypersonic missiles can be detected.
