I'm cleaning out my inbox right now and keep finding cool little stuff in the industry newsletters. So I'll probably keep spamming Oppo throughout the day. Here is a pretty cool article on the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . It uses electromagnetic forces to launch 23 pound kinetic kill projectiles to 5,000 mph (8,000 kph, 2200 m/s, 7,300 fps, Mach 6.5). The footage is pretty neat and you can see the shock waves coming off the projectile. I wonder how they manage to track it?

I was lucky enough to know some guys who built one of these as their senior design project in school. They had probably the coolest project ever, and it required tons and tons of work, but eventually they got the Navy on board and I guess this is the end result

I don't recall the video saying anything. The article said 100 miles, but didn't specify if that was estimated or actual. The true accurate range is most likely classified.
