YJ-21
ОБЗОР СИСТЕМЫ
The YJ-21 is China's first carrier-based hypersonic anti-ship missile, air-launched from the J-15T carrier fighter. A sea-skimming hypersonic glide vehicle, it travels at Mach 6+ in terminal phase, making interception by existing naval point defense systems essentially impossible. The YJ-21 dramatically extends the offensive reach and lethality of China's carrier battle groups.

YJ-21 - CASIC
ПРЕИМУЩЕСТВА
- Mach 6+ speed makes interception by SM-6 or ESSM extremely difficult
- Carrier-launched extends attack range well beyond carrier battle group
- High altitude descent angle limits reaction time for ship defenses
- Each J-15T becomes a ship-killer platform with one YJ-21
- Dramatically raises the cost of attacking Chinese carrier groups
НЕДОСТАТКИ
- Air-launched restricts range by carrier aircraft combat radius
- Complex hypersonic guidance requires sophisticated avionics
- High thermal stresses on airframe limit reuse potential
- Relatively few J-15T aircraft currently capable of launching it

Radar cross-section management at this level requires trade-offs in payload capacity that tacticians need to understand.

Range and payload figures here are impressive but the basing requirements limit operational flexibility considerably.

The maintenance burden per flight hour will determine whether these numbers hold in extended operations.
