Russia is also modernizing its strategic capabilities and has utilized hypersonic missiles in combat. The report further highlights the continued development of intercontinental ballistic missiles by North Korea and Iran's growing arsenal. This proliferation of advanced weapons creates a more complex and dangerous strategic environment for the United States.
