Details

The Fast Hawk was an advanced technology demonstrator program considered by the U.S. Navy during the late 1990s. It was intended to be a wingless cruise missile that could carry a 315 kg payload to a range of 1,250 km, and then attack buried targets up to 12 m underground. The Fast Hawk would have been powered by a solid-propellant boost rocket in the launch phase and a ramjet motor that would cruise at Mach 4.0 in the midcourse phase. It was intended to be 4.2 m in length (6.5 m with the booster rocket), have a body diameter of 0.53 m, and a launch weight of around 1,550 kg. The missile would have been launched from standard Mk 41 vertical launch system canisters. In 1996, a three-year demonstration contract was awarded to the U.S. Naval Air Warfare Centre and Rockwell International (now Boeing), but funding for the project terminated in 1999.

The technology used for the Fast Hawk may have found a new use in the HyFly technology demonstrator project, but the status of the HyFly project is unknown.(1)
