N1  - SIP1723; "January 2017"; Hypersonic glide vehicles are a growing factor in strategic stability calculations. Given their speed, precision and manoeuvrability, these systems are well suited to defeating missile defences. Despite the growing number of countries pursuing these capabilities, the focus on how these systems affect strategic stability tends to be at the bilateral level, which misses the inherent complexity of this emerging field of technological competition and escalation.  This SIPRI Insights Paper seeks to take the current dyadic approach to US–Chinese competition in the field and to insert Russia as a factor that is shaping China’s views on the subject
