The National Police of Ukraine have issued a very rare acknowledgment of the interception of a Russian Kh-32 supersonic anti-ship missile in Kharkiv on the night of 1 FEB. Ukraine has repeatedly (falsely) denied the ability of their legacy Soviet AD assets to defeat the Kh-22/32.

The Kh-22 is a large, long-range, air-launched, anti-ship missile.

Guidance system is inertial guidance followed by terminal active radar homing. Radar homing would not be used when attacking land targets.

Accuracy is 100-300 meters (no GPS assist).

Attack speed Mach 3.5 - Mach 4.6.

Operational range is 320 nm.

Difficult but not impossible to shoot down.
