The DF-41 is a Chinese fourth-generation, solid-fueled, road-mobile intercontinental ballistic missile built by the China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology. Development began in 1986 and the missile entered service in 2017, with an estimated range of 12,000 to 15,000 kilometers and the capacity to carry multiple independently targetable warheads. It can be launched from a silo, a road-mobile transporter erector launcher, or a rail-mobile platform, and was first shown publicly at a military parade marking the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic on October 1, 2019.
