Hypersonica is an Anglo-German defense startup developing Europe's first privately funded hypersonic strike capability, aiming to deliver operational systems by 2029. The company successfully completed Europe's first privately funded hypersonic test flight in February 2026, achieving Mach 6 speeds and a 300km range. Founded by Oxford PhDs in December 2023, they raised €23.3 million in Series A funding and moved from concept to test flight in just nine months. Their software-driven iterative approach promises to deliver hypersonic weapons faster and cheaper than traditional defense contractors.
