For each episode we pick a current deterrence topic and have a cordial, exciting and sometimes funny discussion. Each episode is a stand-alone topical and is expected to increase awareness of deterrence thinking, expand the next generation of deterrence professionals, and prepare the workforce whose mission is to ensure peace, security, and stability.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-01T14:21:25.580589+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-nids-view-5887633"},"episode":{"title":"182 - Dark Eagle and the Future of Hypersonic Deterrence","slug":"182-dark-eagle-and-the-future-of-hypersonic-deterrence","published_at":"2026-07-01T04:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-nids-view-5887633/182-dark-eagle-and-the-future-of-hypersonic-deterrence","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-nids-view-5887633","url":"https://rss.com/podcasts/nuclearview/2943397","audio_url":"https://content.rss.com/episodes/171915/2943397/nuclearview/2026_06_25_17_13_18_f9c0231b-8000-4407-8d91-a7a2e510b37c.mp3","summary":"In this episode of The NIDS View, we examine the strategic implications of emerging hypersonic weapons, focusing on the U.S. Army’s Dark Eagle missile. Joined by missile and space warfare expert Chris Stone, the conversation explores how hypersonic capabilities are reshaping deterrence, escalation dynamics, and the future of conflict. From the engineering challenges behind these systems to their potential role in both conventional and nuclear scenarios, this discussion highlights the complex balance between capability and restraint. The episode also considers how adversaries monitor and respond to these developments, and what it all means for strategic stability in an increasingly contested security and political environment. www.ThinkDeterrence.com","meta_description":"In this episode of The NIDS View, we examine the strategic implications of emerging hypersonic weapons, focusing on the U.S. Army’s Dark Eagle missile.
