North Korea said on Monday it had successfully test-fired a new type medium-to-long-range ballistic missile on Sunday.

State-run KCNA news agency said that leader Kim Jong Un supervised the test of the Pukguksong-2, a new type of strategic weapon capable of carrying a nuclear warhead.

KCNA added that the missile was fired at a high angle in consideration of the safety of neighbouring countries.


Isolated North Korea fired the ballistic missile into the sea early on Sunday, its first such test since U.S. President Donald Trump was elected in November.

@The Deterrent
Does Pakistan's nuclear armed solid fuel MRBM's have similar cold launch capability from its road mobile TEL's?

Pause at 0:58 and look at the height the missile goes before main engine fires up. Incredible.

 

[Taimoor Khan]

ah well, the Supa pawa somehow went missing recently. Everyone is flexing its muscle these days.

Good for kim ... Still far behind !!!

 

[The Deterrent]

This missile is probably a derivative of North Korea's previously tested SLBM.

@The Deterrent

Negative. Pakistan has not canisterised any of its ballistic missiles (for cold launches). Such capability is not really required at the moment, plus it requires a lot more R&D.

Pause at 0:58 and look at the height the missile goes before main engine fires up. Incredible.

Hope you also saw the 'booster' too.

No its not, but you are entitled to your opinion since I can't prove it.
