The CX-1 cruise missile is designed for launch from land-based mobile
 launchers. Designed for supersonic cruise at medium and low level, CX-1
 endgame flexibility offers the selection of a number of attack 
trajectories high altitude dive or a low-altitude sea-skimming attack.

<span style="background-color: #fff2cc;">The high speed and large warhead design maximize penetration and damage 
to the target, enabling the missile to defeat targets from frigates to 
aircraft carriers. </span><br />
The missile was developed by <span class="wp_keywordlink_affiliate"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" target="_blank" title="View all posts in China">China</a></span>’s
 Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology (CALT). The new missile resembles 
in shape and form the Russian Yakhont and Indo-Russian BrahMos missiles,
 both are presented at <span class="wp_keywordlink_affiliate"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" target="_blank" title="View all posts in Airshow China">Airshow China</a></span> 2014 in a full-size display mock-up.<br />

Given the weapon’s active terminal seeker, CX-1 can be launched at 
targets without prior location setting, enabling short reaction time for
 the coastal battery and minimal warning to the target. Moreover, the 
weapon’s supersonic further shortens the flight time and employment of 
evasive manoeuvres countermeasures and by the target.<br />

The export version of CX-1 has a strike range of 40km to 280km.<br />

A variant designed for domestic use is also available, designated DF-12 which could be able to carry a heavier warhead.<br />

Both CX-1 supersonic cruise missile and M-20 tactical ballistic 
missiles are sharing the same mobile Transporter Erector Launcher (TEL) 
platform. The M-20/DF-12, thought to be a Chinese derivative or copy of 
the Russian SS-X-26 (Iskander E) was shown at the IDEX exhibition in 
2013. It is a solid-rocket propelled missile using INS and satellite 
navigation (GPS/Glonass) to achieve strike precision of 10-30 meters. A 
similar weapon developed in Iran has already demonstrated high precision
 attack capability against mobile surface targets (such as vessels at 
sea) using a terminal EO/IR seeker.<br />

The weapon can be carried by a multi-purpose mobile rocket launcher 
mounted on a heavy duty 8×8 chassis supporting off-road operation. The 
gross vehicle weight carrying two missiles in launch canisters is 45 
tons. The same launcher can also carry two M-20 ballistic missiles, 10 
A100 rockets, or eight A200 or A300 rockets. <i>defense-update</i><br />

China’s 10th Zhuhai Airshow does not start until next Tuesday, but it already has one new rock-star on the Chinese military-blogosphere, the new CX-1 supersonic anti-ship cruise missile (ASCM) from the China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology (CALT). Already, scores of images of its full-size display mock-up show an uncanny resemblance to another famous supersonic ASCM, the Mach 2.8-3.0 speed Russian-Indian BrahMos. Both share the distinctive cone-inlet air intake, a two-stage structure and similar dimensions.<br />
There is so far no official data yet on CX-1 and it is not clear if there is a version bound for Chinese service. Chinese reports do say its range is between 50km and 280km. This means it is likely an export model to comply with the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR). It is initially being marketed as a ground-launched anti-ship cruise missile that can be used in concert with other CALT products like the M-20 short-range ballistic missile and several artillery rockets, cued by unmanned aerial vehicles. Later versions are expected to be vertically-launched from ships and perhaps submarines.<br />
<br />
While there is no confirmation that Russia’s NPO Mashinostroyenia sold CALT the technology from its Yakhont supersonic ASCM as it did to India to provide the basis for BrahMos, this should not be surprising. India and Russia have Russian-made NPO Mashinostroyenia 3M-54 Club supersonic terminal-stage ASCMs and Zvezda Kh-31 supersonic anti-radar/ship missiles. But China has also purchased or otherwise acquired the technology to produce its own versions, the larger and longer-range YJ-12, now in Chinese service, is based on Zvezda technology and the YJ-18 is believed to be a shorter range version of the 3M-54. So CALT’s CX-1 is likely China’s third “Russian” supersonic ASCM.<i>   </i><a href="http://aviationweek.com/blog/zhuhai-surprise-china-s-third-russian-supersonic-ascm" target="_blank"><i>CX-1 missile</i></a></div>
