So when are we going to see first real standoff missile from China? It's odd how PLAAF doesn't seem to have any interested towards such weapons. J-10 would become more versatile (being able to launch missiles) and no doubt wider range of weapons could help to boost fighter sales.
Uhh they have had stand off weapons since years ago. KD-88 for JH-7s with KD-63 and CJ-10K for H-6s.
J-10s aren't typically armed with standoff munitions, that job goes to JH-7s
They've also had various Russian stand off weapons for their MKKs and MK2s
KD-88: Anti-ship missile used to target land based threats.
KD-63: Same problem as with above missile.
CJ-10K: Seems to be too cumbersome for a fighter like J-10 to carry.
Compare those two first missiles to a Storm Shadow or KEPD 350. You can see difference between purpose build standoff missile and modified anti-ship missile.
