Abstract
The US, China and Russia are each competing to develop and field hypersonic weapons. Is this competition an arms race? What factors are driving the competition? John McFarland uses Colin S Gray’s four criteria for arms racing to explore each question and analyse the hypersonic weapon competition ongoing between the three states.◼
