N Korea tested intercontinental missile system: US

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

The US says N Korea recently tested parts of a new intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) system, in what it called a "serious escalation".

Pyongyang said the launches on 26 February and 4 March focused on developing a reconnaissance satellite.

But the Pentagon now says the tests were experimental launches, before a likely full-range ICBM launch.

With a minimum range of 5,500km (3,417 miles), ICBMs can reach the US. They are designed for nuclear arms delivery.

3. Headline is misleading

"The missile appears to be similar to the Pukguksong-2 missile, a road-mobile solid-fuel MRBM, known to be the North's ground-based variant of its submarine-launched ballistic missile, the Pukguksong-1, according to observers."

"The unidentified booster is most likely an existing type of road-mobile MRBM since it is unlikely that the first test launch of a new-type booster would also be used to test satellite components..."
