CM-400

The CM-400AKG was unveiled at the 2012 China International Aviation & Aerospace Exhibition, where it was claimed to have entered service on Pakistan Air Force CAC/PAC JF-17 Thunders. At the 2013 Dubai Airshow, a Pakistani military source claimed the missile was in Chinese service, and that an anti-ship version was in development. In 2014, a PAF JF-17 was spotted carrying two – possibly mock-up – CM-400AKGs, suggesting the missile was still in development. At the 2013 Paris Air Show, Fábrica Argentina de Aviones officials revealed the missile's performance was a major reason for their interest in co-producing the JF-17. ==Design==

The CM-400AKG supersonic anti-ship missile is a derivative of the SY-400 guided rocket, also developed by the China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation (CASIC). The CM-400AKG is advertised as having a length, a diameter, a mass of , and a range of , It has a high cruise altitude and a steep terminal dive (semi-ballistic flight profile), with a maximum terminal speed of Mach 4.5 to Mach 5. Seeker options include "INS + GNSS + Passive Radar Seeker," potentially for anti-ship with a circular error probable (CEP) of ., and "INS-GNSS+IR/TV Seeker", with a CEP of . In the aftermath of the 2025 India–Pakistan conflict, Pakistan Air Force officials claimed that CM-400AKG has a range of , a terminal locking range of , a speed of Mach 5, and a passive mode for anti-radiation and suppression of enemy air defenses (SEAD) missions. ==Operational history ==

The Pakistan Air Force (PAF) reportedly purchased 60 CM-400AKG missiles from China in 2017 and 2018. The Indian Air Force claimed that at least 60 such missiles were fired towards the S-400 complex at Adampur airbase over the course of four days, and said that the PAF attempted varying profiles, with the missiles flying at speeds ranging from Mach 3.3 to Mach 5, but none were able to find their mark. In March 2026, images were published online showing the integration of the CM-400 onto Serbian Air Force and Air Defence MiG-29s. ==Operators==
