They should name it after America.
Who helped fund it and build it.
Sort of ironic isn’t it?

The YJ-21 is part of a series of Chinese missiles meant to be ‘carrier killers.’ It is ultra-fast and has an unpredictable flight path. Beijing has long been apprehensive of the potency of American aircraft carrier groups and their capacity to travel across the world and exert military dominance.

A Closer Look at China’s ‘Carrier-Killer’ Missiles
Do they deserve the hype?
by TNI Staff
Here’s What You Need to Remember: If China does have the means to locate a carrier strike group near the DF-26’s maximum range and the ability to feed accurate targeting data to the weapon, it means that even a naval unmanned combat aircraft with mission radius of 1,500 nautical miles wouldn’t keep the carrier out of harm’s way.
The U.S. Navy’s carrier fleet is increasingly challenged in the Western Pacific as China continues its efforts develop anti-access/area denial (A2/AD) capabilities. Some of those systems include the infamous DF-21D anti-ship ballistic missile and Xian H-6K bomber armed with advanced air launched cruise missiles.
