Bill Gertz, China Secretly Conducts Second Flight Test Of New Ultra High-Speed Missile' Wu-14 hypersonic glide vehicle poses major strategic weapons threat. Washington Free Beacon, Aug 19, 2014.

(A second test of the new hypersonic glide vehicle (HGV) known as Wu-14 took place Aug 7 at the Jiuquan satellite launch facility)

The first flight test of the Wu-14 took place Jan 9 and flew at speeds of around Mach 10, or 10 times the speed of sound—around 7,680 miles per hour.

"In China, state-run press outlets made no mention of the Aug 7 test, but Chinese Internet reports revealed a possible Wu-14 launch was carried out * * * Photos posted on Chinese Internet sites and later removed showed debris from a booster that had Chinese characters painted on pieces indicating the rocket belonged to the China Aerospace Corp—China’s main missile manufacturer.

("是美国国防部给中国于2014年1月9日首次测试的一种高超音速滑翔载具(hypersonic glide vehicle;HGV)起的代号。中国测试这种武器的消息是2014年1月14日由美国《华盛顿自由灯塔》網站首先向外界披露的。 2014年1月15日,中国国防部证实了这一消息")
