NORINCO · Anti-Tank · China · Digital Age (2010–present)
HJ-10 is a Chinese ground-launched anti-tank missile developed by Norinco. It has a tandem high-explosive anti-tank (HEAT) warhead, that may penetrate 1,400 mm (55 in) of conventional steel armour protected by explosive reactive armour. The maximum range is 10 km (6.2 mi), with pre- or post-launch lock-on. The system is analogous to Israel's Spike-ER, Serbia's ALAS and North Korea's Bulsae-4 multi-purpose wire-guided missiles.
