WU-14
WU-14 is the Pentagon's code name for a Chinese hypersonic glide vehicle (HGV), now called the DF-ZF.〔
==History==
WU-14 conducted its first flight test on 9 January 2014, as reported by The Washington Free Beacon on 14 January 2014. On 15 January 2014, the Chinese Defense Ministry confirmed the test in a two-sentence statement faxed to news agencies and state-run media in Beijing.
The Free Beacon said the test made China the third country after the Russian Federation and the United States to have successfully tested a hypersonic delivery vehicle able to carry thermonuclear weapons at a speed above Mach 10 - or 12,359 kilometers per hour (7,675 mph). China is also believed to be developing a hypersonic scramjet version that can be launched from air or ground.〔http://freebeacon.com/china-conducts-first-test-of-new-ultra-high-speed-missile-vehicle/〕
