Supporting what Suckafree said elsewhere in the topic, I read somewhere that we in fact, do have them. I think the key thing is that focus has been placed elsewhere.
Development of the Rapid Dragon system is a game changer. Every cargo transport in the US arsenal is now capable of firing dozens of long range and low observable cruise missiles at a time.
Additionally, kits have been developed that can be applied to traditional dumb-bombs that makes them guided, to the point that they can even hit moving ships at sea. They may have hypersonics, but our military went with the route of "Shit, we'll just blow them all up at once."
Also, laser defense systems capable of taking out hypersonics are also hitting the field now.
