From Zhuhai 2018:
The
CM-502 series is a new NLOS-type attack missile (not to be confused with the HJ-10 based CM-502KG) that seems to use fiber-optic guidance (not confirmed). It will work in conjunction with other NLOS missiles and loitering munitions such as the
CM-501G/GA,
CM-501XA, and
CM-501X.
The CM-502V variant is shown here as well.
Specifications:
- Speed: Mach 1.1
- Armor penetration: 1000 mm homogeneous armor
- Warhead: 11 kg
- Range: 25 km
In addition to the CM-501G/GA, CM-501X/XA, and CM-502/V, a rival company (Poly) is also offering their own line of NLOS missiles the
PA01-GA and
PA02-MA. The Chinese seem to be taking this seriously as well.
