everything is great but we must move to stealth aircraft and we do have the know how too

Sd-10 with 203 mm dia and 199kg vs 178mm Dia and 157/164 kg aim-120 is a heavier aam with same or little more range it would be nice if Chinese aam become slimmer and lighter or wingtip pylons of jf are strengthen to carry them as well
 
CM-400AKG

The CM-400AKG is an air-launched supersonic surface attack cruise missile, believed to be the export version of the YJ-12.[19] The 910 kg (2,000 lb) missile is 0.4 m (1.3 ft) in diameter and has a range of between 54–130 nmi (62–150 mi; 100–241 km) while carrying either a 150 kg (330 lb) blast or 200 kg (440 lb) penetration warhead. It has three guidance options, including inertial navigation system (INS) coupled with satellite positioning to get within 50 m, an onboard IR/TV seeker for terminal guidance and 5 m accuracy, and passive radarto supplement the seeker, which delivers (strangely worse) 5–10 m accuracy. One unusual characteristic is that it does not fly at low altitude to avoid detection, but rather uses “high altitude launching” to achieve “higher aircraft survivability.”[20] It may have a top speed of Mach 5.[21]
 
Are not prototypes supposed to be in yellow color scheme?
 
I've read it can be used as a land attack missile. But would be over kill unless used against a hardened bunker.
