Nope. No supersonic cruise missiles from the US.
Here you go, Taishyou: Joint SuperSonic Cruise Missile (JSSCM)
Also of note, there are and have been implemented hardware to combat the Russian Sunburn. The degree of effectiveness is of question being they have not been combat tested against such an adversary, then again, the degree of effectiveness of the Sunburn is also in question being it has not been combat tested.
The Sunburn is only king of the sea on paper....
