Algeria showcased the supersonic CM-302 cruise missiles from China, capable of blocking the critical Strait of Gibraltar. The Algerian Armed Forces conducted a live-fire exercise, demonstrating the missile's capabilities against a simulated naval target. The CM-302, with a range of 280 km and speeds between Mach 2.5 and 4, can maintain supersonic speeds throughout its flight. Algeria's military cooperation with China and Russia is significant, as these exercises may serve as a show of strength rather than a direct threat. The country has also acquired advanced military equipment, including J-10 fighter jets and Iskander-E missile systems.
