China will display five new types of domestically produced missiles at a National Day military parade on October 1, local media said on Wednesday citing military sources.
The Global Times newspaper said the five new missiles include the CSS-X-10 (DF-41) intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) and the CSS-NX-4 (JL-2) submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM), as well as conventional cruise missiles and medium-range and short-range conventional missiles.
"These missiles are domestically designed and manufactured and have never been officially reported before," the paper quoted an anonymous military source as saying.
According to open sources, the CSS-X-10 is the latest land-based solid-fuel ballistic missile to be deployed by China and represents the peak of Chinese missile technology.
It is believed to be similar to the Russian SS-27 Topol-M missile, and is capable of striking the United States. The missile will likely become the core of China''s nuclear strike force.
The CSS-NX-4 is a two-stage solid-fuel SLBM, which has a range of 8,000 km (5,000 miles) and can carry either single or multiple warheads.
The missile has been developed to be deployed on China''s current and new-generation strategic submarines.
