North Korea’s subamarine-launched ballistic missile a total success

[yantong1980]

Good job for NK, worth of self sufficient. That will be short/medium range SLBM, better than none.

 

[somsak]

That their SLBM would reach in the future up to 4000 kilometers, its based on nothing, even before their SLBMs they claimed they could nuke the US.
North Koreans aren't smart, if they were smart they at least could feed their own citizens.

Yet, the mulnutrition North Korean Score 6th on 2016 Math Olympiad, while Israel scores 22th Math Olympiad.

Again, stop comparing Israel all of the time, I am not talking about it.
Also, if we will send in Elon Lindenstrauss, or Robert Aumann, we would have won in the first place without any doubt.
But we don't, we and they have better things to do.

Please tell him to get out of Pyongiyang and then find a resturant .
They wont surpass anyone with a dictator.

You can find more of him, eating drinking and making merry everywhere in North Korea.

South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore were all dictatorships in their development phase.

Mathematics Olympiads have nothing to do with professorial staff.

It has to do with pre tertiary level students.

A 1/5 of our population is Muslim and a 1/3 of our population is Mizrahi, which makes the average go down by a lot.

North Korea has been suffering from worst form of embargo, sanctions, sabotage attempts, isolation, deprive of trade, tourism, investment, suffers from bad press, ageing infrastructure, ageing equipment etc.

It cuts both ways.

A Pro-NK frenchman who believes africans,arabs,hindus,muslims are sub human yet he has a problem spelling submarine

On topic: Congrats to NK

Here's some lesson for you to learn today

[Rajaraja Chola]

S.Korea and its allies should invade North when it still can. Making progress in defence starving people. And it has just a few nukes now. A few years from now it will have many.

 

[pts_m_h_2016]

South Korea is unable to invade North Korea for any reasonable period in future. North Korean military might is not to be toyed with.

Do you think there is a hand of chinese in this particular regard ?

 

[pts_m_h_2016]

Sure, they have the treaty of mutual defence and cooperation with Chinese. Without the Chinese, they are still able to deal heavy blows to Seoul and maybe greater portion of South Korea. North Korea standing alone is not a military power to be toyed with, allied with China, it is a stronger power.

Or perhaps NK is testing ground for chinese untested techs.

Regardless, launching SLBM from submarines is still a commendable effort no doubt.

BTW you said in one of the posts above that it is harder to launch SLMB and compared to cruise missiles, could go into more detail regarding that

South Korea and US have no measures to respond to North Korea SLBM

If a North Korean submarine launches a ballistic missile to South Korea’s rear - in distant waters in the East Sea or South Sea, for example - it probably could not be shot down by THAAD interceptors.

Somebody already forgotten about the Aegis ships and can counter by deploying THAAD in Japan. Not that hard to do. This keeps up, it will happen.

Japan Mulls Thaad Missile Defense System Amid North Korea Threat

Japan is considering deployment of the U.S.’s Thaad ballistic missile defense system to counter any potential strike from North Korea, Defense Minister Gen Nakatani told reporters in Hawaii, Kyodo News reported Tuesday.

Nakatani’s comments come as the U.S. and China square off over the possible deployment of the anti-missile system in South Korea -- a source of tension between the world’s two biggest economies as they vie for influence in Asia.

Adoption of the technology by Japan could also agitate China, which has criticized Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s bid to strengthen the role of Japan’s military, and chill a nascent recovery in ties between Asia’s two biggest economies. Abe told President Barack Obama last week that he supported U.S. naval patrols to assert free navigation in the South China Sea, where China has built artificial islands as a platform to assert its claims to more than 80 percent of the waters.

The Thaad issue has left South Korean President Park Geun Hye caught between the U.S, which maintains more than 28,000 troops in the country to defend against North Korea, and China, its biggest trading partner and ally in efforts to resolve historical and territorial disputes with Japan.

North Korea on Nov. 15 declared a no-sail zone off its eastern coast, suggesting the country may be preparing to test-launch a missile in the sea that lies between the Korean peninsula and Japan, according to Yonhap News. The test could involve a new type of proprietary ballistic missile that separates into several “sub-missiles” at high altitude, the South Korean news agency reported.

Japan to upgrade missile interception system, considers three-tier defense

The government is planning to acquire a greater range of ship-borne interceptors, upgrading two of Japan’s six Aegis ships and building two more. It is also considering buying a U.S. land-based high-altitude interception system.

The Defense Ministry plans to develop an improved version of the SM-3 interceptor rockets carried by Aegis vessels and is examining the U.S. military’s ground-based Terminal High Altitude Area Defense system, known as THAAD.

This comes after North Korea sent a missile — which it dubbed a space rocket — on a trajectory that took it more than 2,000 km on Feb. 7. The launch mirrored one Pyongyang carried out in December 2012.

Four of the Maritime Self-Defense Force’s six Aegis destroyers are currently equipped with SM-3 interceptors. The ministry will upgrade the remaining two by fiscal 2018 and bring them into full compatibility.

In addition, the ministry will procure two more Aegis ships by fiscal 2020 to increase the total to eight.

The current SM-3 interceptors are based on the so-called Block 1A system. Japan and the United States are jointly developing the Block 2A system, which will has an increased interception range.

The current system requires the deployment of three Aegis ships at any one time to provide total coverage for the nation, while only one or two Block 2A-equipped Aegis destroyers would be needed, informed sources say.

Japan’s current two-tiered defense system calls for first trying to shoot down a missile with SM-3 interceptors at an altitude of more than 100 km. If that fails, the second line of defense is firing PAC-3 Patriot rockets as the incoming missile nears its target. The Patriot system has a range of 20 km.

The PAC-3 system alone is insufficient to shoot down medium-range ballistic missiles such as North Korea’s Nodong at low altitudes, because at speeds of 3 to 7 km per second upon atmospheric re-entry such rockets are traveling too fast, the sources said. Nodong missiles have a range of about 1,300 km and can therefore strike Japan.

Meanwhile, the Defense Ministry is studying introducing the THAAD system, which intercepts missiles when they re-enter the atmosphere. This would supplement the PAC-3 system and give the nation a three-tiered missile defense.

The ministry is conducting research on THAAD, including the system’s capabilities and running costs.

THAAD comprises a launcher vehicle and a mobile X-band radar, which can reportedly detect an object as small as a baseball from a range of 1,000 km. It can only be deployed in certain locations, such as on a coast, because the radar has a strong output.

The U.S. Defense Department earlier studied selling two THAAD units, including radars and 150 interceptor missiles, to Qatar. The price was equivalent to more than ¥500 billion.

Err... I have the heards that they have 1 silo per submarine. So, that mates the missile to the boat.

Their submarine wouldn't survive any good scanning Err now that the missile is ready and SK and japs are looking for it. a very good indicator. I will add a whole lot more to the undersea part of detection than a THAAD.

My point being see the submarine, you have the nuke ready to be taken out. The only way that SLBM will work is they are fired from NK territorial waters in actual war.

Even for a first strike.
