The Kh-29 (NATO codename AS-14 Kedge) is a Russian Air-to-surface missile, made by the Molniya Design Bureau (their only air to ground munition). It is produced in several variations, the Kh-29TD television guided missile, and the Kh-29L laser-guided missile, as well as the Kh-29D, with a thermal imaging head.

Almost half the weight of this munition is constituted by the warhead, making it highly suitable for heavily reinforced targets.

These missiles can be carried by a wide variety of aircraft, such as the Su-27 family, and most other Russian strike aircraft.
