The US Army's 'Dark Eagle' hypersonic missile is being considered for deployment in the Middle East, raising tensions with Iran. This missile possesses long-range capabilities and could be used to target key Iranian assets, particularly if negotiations stall. However, concerns remain about the missile's effectiveness due to Iran's strengthened air defenses.
President Trump is evaluating the deployment of Dark Eagle hypersonic missiles against Iranian military infrastructure. The request from US Central Command aims to neutralize mobile launchers hidden in northern Iran's mountainous terrain. Brent crude prices surged past $125 per barrel amid the ongoing conflict.
