A lot of people doubt that this is accurate, it seems to be based mainly on a post on a Chinese blog, not on official statements. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.101.252.188 ( talk) 18:42, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
The claim near the start of the article that no-known defense currently exists would seem to be contradicted in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aegis_Ballistic_Missile_Defense_System#U.S._Navy_Aegis_BMD_Vessels Adzze ( talk) 23:44, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

With more information and links to recent publications the article has now reached a quality that we can take away the quality warning, IMHO. -- Edoe ( talk) 14:02, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
A certain John Pike is cited here that the Aegis system would be able to counter the missile. But already the WP article Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System explains that this is not what it was meant for:
So the AEGIS system could defeat attacks on the USA or other countries with rockets coming over the atlantic or pacific or other large waters - where the interceptor ships are deployed. It is not designed to defeat an ASBM attacking the ship itself.
AEGIS has to track and start the defensive missiles before or around the mid-course of the attacking missiles - which in case of a rocket flying over China to Taiwan would have to be on the chinese mainland.
If the Taipei Times remains the only media to cite this "expert" I propose we take out the comment. -- Edoe ( talk) 12:15, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
The United States has been very very interested in ballistic missile launches in general for several decades now. Hence SBIRS. Most of the claims for maneuvers I've seen for the DF-21D are as a hypersonic glider once it has reentered the atmosphere, but since the SM-3 will have blow it to confetti before that time this won't help it much.

Although some western media reported Fateh-110 to be a DF-11 variant, it is clearly based on Zelzal. Mostly because their size, range and weight are the same. But DF-11 has complete different career and specifications. Even their guidance systems don't match. The only similarity is the presence of movable fins in front of missile although this design is also seen in many other missiles too. It is certainly a media propaganda started by globalsecurity. So, I would suggest removing the part saying Khalij Fars is based on DF-11. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aspahbod ( talk • contribs) 15:57, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
In order to avoid having duplicate discussion in two articles I have moved most the material regarding the DF-21D to the DF-21D article. Acadēmica Orientālis ( talk) 10:09, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
Dhanush is the world's first Anti-ship ballistic missle which entered service in early 21st century. Look up its wiki article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.62.181.45 ( talk) 12:56, 13 November 2013 (UTC)

Induction date says 2010. It is a version of India's Prithvi 2 which entered service around 1994.
