Russia Is Developing Gliders That "Guarantee Penetration" Of Any Missile Defense System

Russia's new Yu-74 ultra-maneuverable hypersonic glide vehicles may be the next response that will be unveiled. Russia has been developing hypersonic weapons during the past few years, and as Sputnik reports, those weapons would have a speed between 3,840 mph (Mach 5), and 7,680 mph (Mach 10). The system uses sophisticated technologies for maneuvering against a wide range of missile defense systems, and allows precise and rapid delivery of warheads.

Wait for what? Russia already tested fully functional hypersonic cruise missile and its ready for serial production. The gliders were tested in Russia 25 years ago.

No propellant at all? Reaches hypersonic speed... There gotta be a liquid or solid propellant
