DESCRIPCIÓN DEL SISTEMA

The Hsiung Feng II (HF-2, "Brave Wind II") is a subsonic sea-skimming anti-ship cruise missile developed indigenously by Taiwan's NCSIST. Sea-launched, air-launched, and land-based truck versions exist. Range is approximately 150 km with active radar homing terminal guidance. The HF-2 forms a key layer of Taiwan's asymmetric anti-access/area-denial strategy against PLAN amphibious forces. It complements the supersonic Hsiung Feng III for a layered anti-ship capability.
