Unlike most cruise missiles in the world, nearly all flight phases of the CJ-100 are at supersonic speed. [8] On Zhuhai Airshow 2024, the missile was displayed by its manufacturer, with specifications claiming a cruise speed of Mach 4 and a range between 3,000–4,000 km (1,900–2,500 mi; 1,600–2,200 nmi).
A 1995 Russian document suggested a complete production facility had been transferred to Shanghai, for the development of a nuclear-armed cruise missile. Originally it was thought that this was based on the 300 km-range Raduga Kh-15 (AS-16 'Kickback'), but it now appears that it was the Kh-55 that was transferred to China. [5]
The missile can be launched from vertical launching systems, [6] and possibly from submarine torpedo tubes. [3] Chinese media claims the missile has an inertial guidance system using BeiDou Navigation Satellite System data, and carries a 300 kg (660 lb) high-explosive warhead with an anti-radiation seeker.

A cruise missile is an unmanned self-propelled guided missile that sustains flight through aerodynamic lift for most of its flight path. Cruise missiles are designed to deliver a large payload over long distances with high precision.
The air-launched YJ-83K has a range of 180 km (110 mi), a cruise speed of Mach 0.9, and a 165 kg (364 lb) high-explosive, semi-armour piercing warhead. The improved YJ-83KH uses a imaging-infrared seeker and has a range of 230 km; [ 4 ] reportedly it may receive course corrections by remote link.
The replication of the MM38's "revolutionary flight profile" in less than ten years and with an immature industrial base strongly suggests that China had access to proven technology. [4] The YJ-8 was a "radical departure" from China's first anti-ship missiles derived from the P-15 Termit. The YJ-8 carried a smaller warhead, but had the same ...
YJ-62A on a TA580/TAS5380. In a September 2014 article published in Joint Forces Quarterly, the YJ-62 is credited with a 210 kg (460 lb) warhead, a speed of Mach 0.6 – Mach 0.8 (735–980 km/h; 457–609 mph), and a sea-skimming terminal attack height of 7–10 m (23–33 ft); The missile has an inertial guidance system using GPS and BeiDou data, and an active terminal sensor.
