Transcription
Production
HGV-202F a hypersonic Boost-glide vehicle is being designed, developed, and manufactured by an Indian Defense and Space company HTNP Industries.[citation needed] It is designed to be mounted on a Agni-V and Agni-VI, a type of ballistic missile specifically designed to carry HGVs.[citation needed] According to the Arms Control Association, "Hypersonic glide vehicles are distinguished from traditional ballistic missiles by their ability to maneuver and operate at lower altitudes."[3][better source needed]
Context
The maneuverability and high speed of the HGV raises new challenges for conventional missile defense systems. With the disadvantage again swinging toward defensive systems, many in the defense industry are worried hypersonic weapons will rekindle an arms race such as the one during the cold war era.[4]

Jack Reed ... told me it might make sense to question the weapons' global impact or talk with Russia about the risks they create, but the priority in Washington right now is to get our versions built.
