Shooting simulation of a MRBM DF-21C on a main road.

DF-21C is a medium-range road-mobile ballistic missile (while DF-21D is an anti-ship ballistic missile).

Description
The DF-21C is a modernized version of the DF-21 family medium-range road mobile ballistic missile. The development of the DF-21C began in 1984, intended to offer the ability to carry a much larger warhead. The DF-21 and DF-21A were nuclear strike weapons; the DF-21C is employed as a conventional weapon system, employing terminal guidance for increased accuracy. The DF-21 was unveiled for the first time to the public during a military parade the October 1, 2009. The latest variant to enter service is the DF-21D, an ASBM (Anti-Ship Ballistic Missile) variant employing a terminally guided MaRV (Maneuvering Re-entry Vehicle).

Variants:
- DF-21A: has improved accuracy with an estimated circular error probable (CEP) of 100~300m, with both GPS and a radar-based terminal guidance system in a redesigned nose. This version is reported to have a similar range of 1,770 km.
- DF-21B: is estimated to be the same physical size and shape of the DF-21A, but it is equipment with an enhanced terminal guidance system. The accuracy is believed to be 10 m CEP.
- DF-21C: Its maximum range is believed to be about 1,700 kilometers (1,100 mi). The new GPS-based guidance system has reduced the missile’s CEP to 30~40m, enabling it for precision-strike missions
- DF-21D: is an ant-ship ballistic missile. U.S. reports suggest a range a 1,450 to 1,550 km, but Chinese reports indicate a range of 2,700 km. Similar to the DF-21B, the warhead is likely maneuverable and may have an accuracy of 20 m CEP

China's DF-41 ICBM: The World’s Longest-range Nuclear Missile
The maker of this video has made some good packaging... just like those Japanese cookies with elegant & beautiful packings yet casual taste (and sell at premium prices) :lol::D:P anyhow still has points for the laymen.
