'''Yu-74 Hypersonic glider''' ('''Avangard'''), developed under codename Project 4202, is an advanced weapon system created by [[Russia]] for nuclear warhead or electronic warfare delivery. The glide vehicle is carried by the [[Sarmat]] [[intercontinental ballistic missile]] and it is believed to travel at speeds between Mach 5 and Mach 10 with a distance of 3400 miles. Speed, ultra-maneuverability, and unpredictable trajectory make for a lethal combination and their development is expected to counter any [[missile defense system]] deployed by U.S. or [[NATO]] forces.
