Yu-74 Hypersonic glider , 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 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.
