The Pakistani Carrier Killer Missile

The CM-400AKG, often dubbed the “carrier killer,” is a Chinese-developed, air-launched supersonic missile designed primarily for anti-ship and land-attack missions. Developed by the China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation (CASIC), it is an export variant of the YJ-12 missile and has been integrated into Pakistan’s JF-17 Thunder fighter jets.

Deployment and Operational Use

Pakistan became the first export customer of the CM-400AKG, acquiring 60 missiles between 2017 and 2018 to bolster its maritime strike capabilities. The missile’s integration with the JF-17 Thunder provides the Pakistan Air Force with a potent tool to deter or neutralize high-value naval assets, such as aircraft carriers.

The CM-400AKG’s combination of high speed, substantial warhead, and advanced guidance systems positions it as a significant threat to modern naval defenses, particularly in contested regions like the Indian Ocean.
