CY-1
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The CY-1 (劍魚, 'sword fish'), is an anti-submarine rocket carried on a variety of surface platforms, including the Luda class missile destroyer and Jiangwei class missile patrol combatants.
The CY-1 is believed to similar in operation to the U.S. Navy ASROC. There is little information available regarding the development history, performance, and exact status of the missile, but it is understood that a few of the missiles were deployed on the PLA Navy Type 051 (Luda class) destroyers and Type 052H2G (Jiangwei-I class) frigates.[1] The CY-1 is basically an anti-submarine torpedo of either the YU-4 or YU-5 class, delivered by a ballistic rocket. The delivery vehicle features four small stabilising fins and four control surfaces, and is powered by a solid-fuel rocket motor.
