DF-21D, DF-26

DF-21D is China's "carrier killer" — the first anti-ship ballistic missile (ASBM). Range 1,500+ km, payload 600 kg with a maneuvering re-entry vehicle (MaRV) and an active radar or IIR seeker in the terminal phase against the moving target. The concept breaks the classic USN A2/AD paradigm: a carrier strike group sailing within 1,500 km of the Chinese coast becomes a potential target for a Mach 10+ incoming ballistic "skip bomb". Actual effectiveness against a maneuvering CVN with Aegis BMD is contested; no public combat test has put the paradigm to the proof. DF-26 is the "Guam Express" — a 4,000 km IRBM with dual conventional/nuclear warhead, claimed in an ASBM mode. Both are not exportable.
