The CJ-10 (simplified Chinese: 长剑-10; traditional Chinese: 長劍-10; pinyin: Cháng Jiàn 10; literally: "long sword 10") is a second-generationChinese ground based land-attack missile. It is derived from the Kh-55 missile. It is reportedly manufactured by the China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation Third Academy and the China Haiying Electro-Mechanical Technology Academy.

Initially, the CJ-10 was identified as a DH-10 (Chinese: 东海-10; pinyin: Dong Hai 10; literally: "east sea 10") missile by Western media and analysts. In the annual reports submitted to the United States Congress from the United States Department of Defense concerning the Chinese missile, which was classified as a variance of "DH-10" until 2011, when it was recognized as the "CJ-10" in 2012. Current publications may use both terms interchangeably to identify the missile. Ian Easton believes that the CJ-10 is the same missile as the HN-2, and that the HN-3 is the "DH-10A".

In the September 2014 edition of Joint Forces Quarterly, an article reportedly described CJ-10 as a subsonic missile with a range of more than 1,500 km and a 500 kg. payload. The article attributes the missile having a guidance package using inertial navigation system, satellite navigation, Terrain Contour Matching, and a likely Digital Scene-Mapping Area Correlator for terminal guidance. Ships and ground transporter erector launchers were listed as launch platforms.
