The P-900 Alfa (or also P-900A Alfa) П-900 3М51 Альфа Alfa AFM-L, GRAU designation 3M51, is an anti-ship missile (with LACM capabilities) developed from the 3M54 Kalibr, P-800 Oniks and P-700 Granit.

The missile has a Granit type engine. It can be operated on new Yasen-class submarine, and can be loaded on ships.^{[citation needed]} Coastal versions of the anti-ship missile are under development.^[1] The missile is developed at NPO Mashinostroyeniya.^[1]

3M-51 Alfa is also designated as Novator KTRV, Morinform Agat, 3M54, 3M54E and P-900 types.^{[citation needed]}

The new cruise missile was designed for use in the Russian Navy.^[1] Modernization of Kirov-class battlecruiser, other new battlecruisers, destroyers and cruisers may include 3M-51 Alfa that can be refitted on ships with existing Zircon, Grom Meteorit, GELA, P1200 Bolid or P-1000 Vulkan missile launchers.^{[citation needed]}

Despite a secrecy surrounding the new missile, it can be presumed that it holds promise as an exportable weapons system.^[1]
