As the American people anxiously await the results of the highly anticipated election, the US military has chosen to conduct a test launch of a hypersonic nuclear missile. This striking decision has caused some concern, as the launch is scheduled to occur between 11pm and 5am PT, right as the polls are closing and the election results are being tallied.
The missile in question is an unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile, capable of traveling 4,000 miles at speeds of over 15,000 miles per hour. It will be launched from California's Vandenberg Space Force and will reach its destination at Kwajalein Atoll in the North Pacific. This demonstration not only showcases the impressive capabilities of the US military, but also serves as a reminder of the readiness of our nuclear forces.
According to Colonel Bryan Titus, Space Launch Delta 30 vice commander, this test launch is just one of the many extraordinary events happening at Vandenberg this week. He believes that it holds immense significance, not only for the defense of our nation, but also as a testament to the expertise and dedication of the team behind it.
As the launch takes place, citizens across the country are returning from casting their votes. National security has been a major deciding factor for many voters, with Russia being accused of orchestrating dangerous bomb threats at polling stations. In response, poll workers have been equipped with panic buttons and special weapons teams have been deployed. Additionally, hundreds of National Guard personnel have been placed on standby.
While some states still have hours to go before their polls close, many on the east coast have already been called. However, it may still take days or even weeks for an official tally to be released as each state has their own procedures for counting votes. In the 2020 election, it took four days for a clear winner to be declared, and even then, the final results were not finalized for weeks - or in some cases, months.
In the midst of all this, the US military has assured the public that this launch was scheduled years in advance. Regardless of the outcome of the election, the American people can take comfort in the fact that our military is prepared and ready to protect our nation.
