ديإف-21
The Dong-Feng 21 (DF-21; NATO reporting name CSS-5 - Dong-Feng (صينية: 东风؛ حرفياً: 'East Wind'�) is a two-stage, solid-propellant, single-warhead medium-range ballistic missile (MRBM) in the Dong Feng series developed by China Changfeng Mechanics and Electronics Technology Academy. Development started in the late 1960s and was completed around 1985-86, but it was not deployed until 1991. It was developed from the submarine-launched JL-1 missile, and is China's first solid-fuel land-based missile. The U.S. Department of Defense in 2008 estimated that China had 60-80 missiles and 60 launchers.[7]

Originally developed as a strategic weapon, the DF-21's later variants were designed for both nuclear and conventional missions. As well as a nuclear warhead of around 300 kt, it is thought that high explosive and submunition warheads are available. The latest DF-21D was said to be the world's first anti-ship ballistic missile (ASBM). The DF-21 has also been developed into a space-capable anti-satellite/anti-missile weapon carrier.
Though the launcher itself is road mobile, an actual launch requires support vehicles and a specially prepared launch platform to prevent backblast damage due to the hard launch.[8]

الصفقة السعودية
في 18 سبتمبر 2014، صرح الخبير الاستراتيجي السعودي أنور عشقي، المقرب من الدولة السعودية، لصحيفة عكاظ أن السعودية قد شترت عدداً من صواريخ ديإف-21 البالستية متوسطة المدى في 2007.[9] وقالت مجلة نيوزويك الأمريكية أن وكالة المخابرات المركزية الأمريكية قد سمحت بالصفقة بشرط أن يتم تعديل الصواريخ في الصين فلا تستطيع حمل رؤوس نووية. وكانت السعودية قد اشترت من قبلاً، سراً أيضاً، صواريخ ديإف-3أ البالستية في 1988، والتي كشفت عنها الولايات المتحدة لاحقاً.
