Pakistan Navy have purchased 120 C-602 long range anti-ship cruise missiles from china to counter the threat posed to the surface fleet of Pakistan navy by the Proliferation of Russian supersonic AntiShip missiles P-800 Oniks / Yakhont / PJ-10 Brahmos (Indian assembled version of Yakhont). Long range of the C-602 AntiShip missile will make sure that Pakistan Navy have first shoot advantage in case of an encounter with the Indian ships equipped with Russian Yakhont AntiShip missiles.

Pakistan Navy have purchased Chinese C602 long range anti-ship cruise missiles
The C-602 long-range subsonic anti-ship cruise missile is developed by the CASIC 3rd Academy. The C-602 outperforms most Western and Russian anti-ship missiles in terms of range and warhead mass. The YJ-62 was first offered for export by the China National Precision Machinery Import and Export Corporation (CPMIEC) during the Defense Systems & Equipment International (DSEI) Land and Naval Systems Exhibition in September 2005. The missile is fitted with a strap-down inertial guidance coupled with GPS, and active radar for the terminal phase. CPMIEC claims that the C-602 is fitted with a frequency agile radar seeker which offers greater resistance to jamming from targeted ship. The active radar seeker has an acquisition range of up to 40km.
The C-602 is a conventional cruise missile design, with mid-body wings that deploy following launch. The fixed ventral air inlet is mounted slightly forward of the cruciform tail fins. The missile is 6.1 meters long (without the 0.9 meter-long launch booster), and weighs 1,140kg. The solid propellant booster weighs an additional 210kg. The C-602 has a cruise speed of Mach 0.6, carries a 300kg HE blast warhead, is powered by a small turbojet, and has a stated range of 280km, with the missile flying at an altitude of 30 meters during the cruise phase of an engagement. In the terminal phase, the missile descends to a height of seven meters, and it can be launched from truck-mounted launchers, from warships as well as from medium multi-role combat aircraft.C-602 anti-ship missile employs a cylinder-shape launcher.

what is the range of this missile?
Range is 280 km at very low altitude (10 to 30 meter for cruise and about 7meter in terminal flight )remember that due to MTCR range cannot be more than 300km, but if flight profile uses medium altitude like Russian /indian BrahMos than C-602 will be able to cover much more than 300km
Pakistan should have ordered the DF-21 anti-ship ballistic missile instead. It's a revolutionary weapon, the world's most powerful anti-ship weapon.
The DF-21 ASBM has a range of 3000 km and speed of Mach 10. With maneuvering 600-kg warheads, it is proven that NOTHING is able to intercept the DF-21 ASBM.
THE DELIVERY TRUCK FOR C602 IS A CHINESE BENZ VEHICLE.
IT SEEMS THE SAME VEHICLE WHICH IS BEING PARADED ON INDIAN TV.LAUNCH VEHICLE OF C602 IS FIRING FROM A FOUR CELL TEL/LAUNCHER BUT THE END RESULT AN AMERICAN AGM 184 HARPOON
THIS SEQUENCE HAS BEEN TAKEN FROM AN EARLIER FIRED HARPOON WHICH PAKISTAN NAVY FIRED ON A NAVAL SHIP(TARGET)AND IS SHOWN WITH THE HEADING (PAKISTAN HAS CHANGED THE RANGE & ADDED GROUND ATTACK FEATURES) WHICH IS A PROPAGANDA .
America SHOULD RESTRAIN FROM TOWING SUCH NEGATIVE PROPAGANDA WHICH THE INDIANS ARE DOING JUST TO RESTRAIN AMERICA FROM DELIVERING PC3,S AND ADDITIONAL HARPOONS.
PAKISTAN HAS BOUGHT CHINESE FRIGATES NOT AS A SYMBOL BUT AS CAPABLE PLATFORMS WITH Z9C ANTI SUB HELICOPTERS 06 IN NUMBER .
MORE OVER IF INDIA HAS ANY NOTION TO ATTACK OR BLOCK PAKISTAN NAVAL SUPPLY LANES,WE HAVE ENOUGH MISSILES RA!AD ALCM RANGE 250 KM AND PAKISTANI MADE GLIDE BOMBS H2+H4 RANGE-60+120KM /250/500 KG AND ANOTHER CRUISE MISSILE BABUR RANGE 1000 KM WE HAVE LOT OF OPTIONS TO TAKE OUT INDIAN AIRCRAFT CARRIERS.
AS FOR THE AMERICANS ARE CONCERNED WE ONLY RELAY ON THEM FOR CONVENTIONAL ARMS OR DEFENCE WEAPONS ONLY .
