The US Space Force is working on a warning system in case of a North Korean missile launch.

Through the efforts of a new branch of the US military [Space Force], the Indo-Pacific Command was established. According to the commander of the Space Forces (CS), General John Raymond (now retired), in parallel with this, active work is underway to create a warning system in case the DPRK launches missiles.

Speaking at a webinar hosted by the Mitchell Institute for Space Research, General James Dickinson, head of the US Joint Space Command, outlined a plan to deploy US space forces in the Indo-Pacific region.



We are actively developing a detection system that will give us the ability to track missiles launched by the North Korean military, warn us and our allies of a missile attack.

Dickinson noted.

The American army, which includes the Indo-Pacific Command of the US Armed Forces, will be responsible for East Asia, as well as the Indo-Pacific region, focusing its attention on the PRC. The new commander of the US Space Forces, Chance Saltzman, who replaced his predecessor Raymond in this post, stated the importance of this new type of aircraft in the region, especially in the context of the "threat" posed by China - the main rival of the States.

It should be noted that the decision to expand its military presence in Asia by the US Constitutional Court takes place against the backdrop of growing tensions in this region. With the participation of US troops, South Korea and Japan recently held joint military exercises in response to Pyongyang's missile tests. North Korea has already successfully launched its ballistic missiles this month. At the same time, visits by US congressmen to Taiwan have become more frequent, while the Chinese leadership is expressing its dissatisfaction with Washington's actions.

Recall that Russia accused the US and NATO of trying to militarize the Asia-Pacific region.

        This is what I mean by efficiency.
        In April 2016, the DPRK launched its first ICBM, and already in December 2022, the United States noticed this and decided to respond.
        I wonder where they take bets when this decision will translate into a new radar station in Okinawa?

      Well, they don’t reach Fashington, so they are developing it.)

        They just became able to fly, and here we need a detection system next to each other. Plus, such detection is necessary in the anti-missile system, it is easier to intercept the ICBM at the start. It's just that they are gradually building a system of antimissiles against a certain group of states. Playing with nuclear war can end very badly.

        How do they not reach? Do you want to say that the northerners had to shoot straight across the states in a revealing way, so that it would reach everyone?
        Their last successful launch was along a high-altitude trajectory, with an apogee of 6100 km, with a range of 1000 km, the rocket was in flight for an hour? If they launched it along a normal ballistic trajectory, then the range would be 15 km. And they could get to any point throughout the United States.
        The northerners simply do not have a training ground at such distances as Russia and the United States. So they launch up.
        So the Yankees were itching ... YN is small, but threatens like an adult.

    Campaign, like Ze under the coconut) did they put these systems in Europe and left the missile defense system, or has everyone already forgotten everything?)

    Yes, of course, Korea scared them, the new missile defense system against China and Russia is stirred up from the Pacific Ocean.

    A statement for dumkopfof, that means if our SSBNs are discharged to the fullest across the USA near the coast of the DPRK, the Americans will fade that the DPRK shoots at them only when one of the many warheads arrives on the White House lawn?

    That is, I understand correctly that all these quarter of a century, since the first launch of the first Taepodong - the States did not even notice these missiles at the time of launch ???
    Well, handsome people, what can I say ... I'm talking about the Koreans, of course soldier

    And how many times did Korean missiles fly over Japan! Not only were they never shot down, they were not even discovered in time. So, the concern of the striped ones can be understood)

    Choose a country to call it an enemy.
    Regularly in the media to call this country an enemy.
    Try to isolate this country economically.
    In the "yellow media" to call this country dense, but aggressive.
    In various media, report how this country threatens neighboring countries.
    Some time later, start publishing in various media about the emergence of a threat to civilians in their country ...
    After that, the US authorities may well talk to their voters about the danger posed by the DPRK.
    And the Koreans simply do not want to live the way the US prescribes.

    With the participation of US troops, South Korea and Japan recently held joint military exercises in response to Pyongyang's missile tests.

    On the contrary, Pyongyang's missile tests were carried out in response to the joint air exercises of South Korea (240 combat aircraft, 1600 sorties) and Japan (250 Japanese and 120 American aircraft) with the United States.
    Prior to Moon Jae-in's presidency, 300 South Korean and tens of thousands of US troops took part in the annual joint South Korean-US military exercise. The military of the European NATO countries, Australia and Canada took part. Air strikes against the DPRK and amphibious landings were practiced. For example, up to 000 Russian military personnel took part in the exercises of Russian troops that transferred to the NVO.
