The new CM-400 antiship test image. 2~3 times faster than india Brahmos missiles(CM-400AKG flies at 4march to 6 march). And it can fire further than it(300km range for CM-400AKG).

This is an Anti Ship Ballistic Missile. This missile mainly designed for JF-17,because our navy already has YJ-18 Air force has too many kind of ASMs.

It works like a air luanch version Chinese DF-21D, but much simplier. Because the CM-400 AKG has shorter range and slower speed.

CM-400 AKG is not fast enough to penetrate US carrier fleet, mainly because the excellent standard 3 missile. But NONE of INS vessels have weapon to intercept it. Bad news for India.

This is the SY-400 rocket. CM-400AKG is based on this rocket.
 
What makes CM400 so unique is not its speed or range but rather it attack approach. Typically it is launched by an aircraft flying just above level to avoid radar detection at the range of the missile. After the launch the missile travels straight and level for a short while and than goes up vertically to about 50,0000 feet. Once above the target it comes down vertically at the target at very high speeds. There are hardly any missiles or CIWS which can engage it at that angle. Very different from Harpoon and C802 type subsonic or eve the Brahmos.
