Both China and Russia have hypersonic missile technology that is already in series production and deployed. What that means is that either country can currently destroy any military asset anywhere on the planet with zero possibility of defence. That means that these missiles cannot be stopped by any existing military technology.
What that really means is that all US aircraft carriers and battleships can simply be sunk no matter where they are in the world in less than 10 minutes by either China or Russia. Any air base can be obliterated in under 10 minutes (including bases inside the USA).
The USA does not have ANY hypersonic capabilities in the field yet.
The reason Russia or China hasn't done this, is because the likely response (the only possible thing that could "level the field") from the US would be a nuclear attack, which would result in a nuclear response and an end to all human life.
So in reality, it is only mutually assured destruction and the rational heads of state of Russia and China that allow the US to pretend that it has military superiority. In reality, the US cannot use its military against either of these powers as they have the actual superior forces in the real world.
