been back from Zhuahai for a couple of days and busy working...
-------------------------------
I had a short conversation with the staff of the CX-1 R&D team and I recalled some old info in my head , with these I would write a brief history about P800/Oniks tech in China here ..
1. the Break-down of Soviet Union lead the ex-SU's mililtary technology diffusion... the union was gone, the economy was down, and Research funds was gone ...at that time , the whole Ex-SU nations were in chaos...many famous Design Bureau were in great financial difficulty...so they began their self rescue operation
2. P800/Oniks project hasn't finished yet then...so the NPO Mashinostroyeniya came first to China to discuss the "Co-operation"---they want to use others' FUND to finish their own work and the FUNDER might get some tech...
3. during the negotiation, the Russian provide quite some info about P800 project..like the overall design scheme, some sub-system theory and tech for China Team to evaluate ...at that time , Russian was very "generous" or I have to say they were so short of funds and eager to find the funder that they share quite some detailed info about the P800 project in early stage...note: we got the tech info/detail about P800 project early tech status of early 1990s...
4. the Chief Designer of Anti-ship missile systems made the final decision....except the P800's advancement and advantages, the disadvantage was also apparent
...a) too heavy and big
...b) too Expensive
...c) too easy to be detected and intercepted in High Altitude trajectory profile and the range was shorten to around 120KM in all time Low alititude profile...
then the answer to the Russian offer was: NO...
then they kept looking for new funder and succeeded in so called co-operation in the end with we all know who(LOL) ...
6. those tech scheme were well kept in safe box untill a new young team led by the same young leader. they decided to turn this overall design scheme into the real stuff...here comes the CX-1... the team has mastered Ramjet tech and Homing tech in the development of other AshM projects and apply these on this P800 alike AshM project...
7.A100/200/300/M20 Multi Function Weapon system is always keep moving on...CX-1 is the new member and the AshM and CM modules in this System sharing the same Target acquiring ,Relay guidance ,Commanding ,and Launch platform modules which are ready-made...obviously ,more products/Choice for customer would attract more attention...any way CX-1 is just a new sub-module of an Export project, nothing more...
As the young member of that team said : the reason to go on this project is just : YES, WE CAN" ..they have the tech, funds and time to try this scheme as a practice ....LOL...

the Demo Video demonstrated the CX-1's High-Low combined trajectory ...
