The CJ-10 (simplified Chinese: 长剑-10; traditional Chinese: 長劍-10; pinyin: Cháng Jiàn 10; lit. 'long sword 10') is a second-generation[2] Chinese ground-launched land-attack cruise missile.[3] It is reportedly manufactured by the China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation Third Academy and the China Haiying Electro-Mechanical Technology Academy.[2]

The CJ-10 was initially identified as the DH-10 (Chinese: 东海-10; pinyin: Dong Hai 10; lit. 'east sea 10') by media and Western analysts.[4][5] The annual United States Department of Defense reports to the United States Congress concerning Chinese defence developments used "DH-10" up to 2011,[6][7] before switching to "CJ-10" in 2012.[8][9] Extant publications may use both terms to identify the missile.[2][10] Ian Easton believes that the CJ-10 is actually the same missile as the HN-2, and that the HN-3 is the "DH-10A".[11]

Description

In a September 2014 article published in Joint Forces Quarterly, the CJ-10 is described as a subsonic missile with a range of more than 1500 km., and a 500 kg. payload. It credits the missile with a guidance package using inertial navigation system, satellite navigation, Terrain Contour Matching, and likely Digital Scene-Mapping Area Correlator for terminal guidance. Ships and ground transporter erector launchers were listed as launch platforms.[2]

In 2013, the United States credited the missile with a range of more than 1500 km., and either a conventional or nuclear payload.[12]

In 2004, the CJ-10 was credited with a of CEP of 10 m.[13]

Development

The CJ-10 may have benefited significantly from foreign technology acquired by China throughout the 1990s, notably the Kh-55 (purchased from Ukraine), and the Tomahawk (unexploded and parts purchased from Iraq, Pakistan, and Serbia).[11] No official Chinese source has confirmed this.[citation needed]

Jane's reported the CJ-10 was test fired in 2004.[13] An August 2012 report by Jane's indicated that a ship-bourne version of the missile may have been tested on Bi Sheng, a Chinese weapons trial ship.[14]

The United States estimated 50-250 missiles were in Chinese service in 2008,[15] with the number increasing to 150-350 in 2009.[16]

Variants

CJ-10
"DH-10A"
Supposedly a stealthier, more accurate, version of the CJ-10.[11]
"DH-2000"
Supposedly a supersonic version of the DH-10A.[17]
CJ-20
Air-launched version of the CJ-10.[18] Reportedly been tested on the Xian H-6; each bomber may carry four missiles externally.[19]
