North Korea intends to develop a new intercontinental ballistic missile

According to the North Korean news agency KCNA, Pyongyang intends to mass-produce tactical nuclear weapons. weapons, as well as to engage in the creation of a new intercontinental ballistic missile for inflicting a nuclear counterattack on the enemy.

According to the agency, the head of the DPRK, Kim Jong-un, has already given relevant instructions.



In addition, the leader of North Korea also said that the country has created new multiple launch rocket systems of 600 mm caliber. Kim Jong-un noted that the entire territory of South Korea would be within the reach of these launchers. He also added that the new MLRS can also use nuclear weapons.

The South Korean news agency Yonhap writes that Kim Jong-un explained the need to improve weapons and mass production of tactical nuclear weapons by saying that "South Korea has become an obvious enemy" of the DPRK.

In addition to all this, it is reported that Pyongyang is preparing to launch a military satellite in the near future.

Recall that the DPRK in 2005 officially announced the creation of its own nuclear weapons in the country, and the very next year the first nuclear explosion was carried out. Pyongyang began to create its own ballistic missiles back in the late 1980s and has since made significant progress in this matter. So, the Korean missile "Taepodong" can cover a distance of 6000 kilometers.

    The Koreans are actively developing technologies received from YUZHMASH. Ukraine sold everything it could.
    Tellingly, it seems to me that they even "make" the Chinese in the modernization of Soviet rocket engines.

      Well, you got it. The Chinese have made very good progress in both liquid and solid fuel engines. They are armed with both a heavy liquid (a la R-36) and a heavy solid fuel (a la lightened somewhat "Good job") rocket, and they have enough missiles suitable for peaceful space.

    North Korea , to the detriment of its economy , is heavily militarized . The latest military technology creates a safe zone. I won't be surprised if the hegemon (USA) makes even one mistake and weakens, Comrade Kim will order 남쪽으로 (to the south).

    The First Promising Comrade, the Hope of the Korean People, Generalissimo Yn has already said: If necessary, we will use nuclear weapons and not only for the defense of North Korea. Type to preemptively not let someone attack.

    PS the main thing is to fly.

    and also to engage in the creation of a new intercontinental ballistic missile for inflicting a nuclear counterattack on the enemy.

    This refers to the creation of a solid-propellant ICBM - an analogue of the Minuteman III. The American rocket has a thrust of the first stage of 95 tons, a range of 13000 km and a weight of 35 tons. The North Koreans tested a solid-propellant engine with a thrust of 140 tons. Thus, the new missile will cover the entire territory of the United States, and due to its low weight, it can be placed on railway platforms (BZHRK) and mobile launchers, of which the Koreans have hundreds. The Koreans have enough uranium, back in 1956 Soviet geologists conducted special surveys and estimated the uranium reserves in the DPRK at 2,6 million tons, or 16 thousand tons of U235.
    the country has created new multiple launch rocket systems of 600 mm caliber. Kim Jong-un noted that the entire territory of South Korea will be within the reach of these launchers.

    By the congress of the TPK, 30 MLRS of 600 mm caliber were manufactured, which may also have a nuclear warhead. Wheel installation carries 4 TPK, tracked 6 TPK. The media write that tests today and yesterday were carried out at a distance of 350 km.

      The maximum height was 100 km, and such a trajectory was most likely chosen so that the shells did not fly outside the territorial waters. The South Koreans and the Japanese always pull out the remains of North Korean missiles from under the water for research.

      in 1956, Soviet geologists conducted special surveys and estimated the uranium reserves in the DPRK at 2,6 million tons.

      In another source, studies were carried out in 1947-1950. I made a 10-fold mistake with reserves - 26 million tons of natural (oxides) uranium.

    it is quite possible for Comrade Kim to come to an agreement with Cuba and Venezuela and help these countries become nuclear powers, and Kim Chen can organize a military base there

    Well done Kim! He does not bend before anyone and does not express concerns.
