North Korea’s ballistic missile equipped with a 4.5 ton warhead was successfully tested
According to Webangah News quoted by Mehr News Agency, citing Reuters, North Korea’s Central News Agency announced that the country has successfully tested a tactical ballistic missile capable of carrying an ultra-large warhead weighing 4.5 tons.
South Korea claimed yesterday that its northern neighbor launched two ballistic missiles, one of which probably crashed shortly after launch. However, in the news published by the North Korean Central News Agency, it is not clear whether two missiles were launched or not, and in the description of the article, the missile was also used in a single mode.
It is stated in the published news: The test of a new tactical ballistic missile called “Huasongf V-11 DA-4.5” with a heavy simulated warhead in order to measure and Confirmation of flight stability and accuracy was done successfully.
Lee Seong-joon, spokesman for Seoul’s Joint Chiefs of Staff, claimed that North Korea’s report of the missile test was likely “deceptive” because one of them was flying abnormally. It is!
A South Korean military official announced that the country’s army held artillery drills within five kilometers of the military border line in the demilitarized zone between the two Koreas. The holding of such exercises near the border of the two Koreas has continued simultaneously with the suspension of the military pact between Pyongyang and Seoul. Seoul suspended the treaty after it claimed that Pyongyang had sent hundreds of balloons containing garbage and excrement into the skies of South Korea.
The Huasong V-11 or Huasong-11 is a series of short-range ballistic missiles produced by Pyongyang known as the KN-23 and KN-24. Reuters, quoting Ukrainian officials who have examined the wreckage of missiles launched by Russia since December, claimed that the KN-23 is probably the same missiles that North Korea supplied to Russia and that Moscow used to attack Ukraine!
North Korea and Russia have denied any arms exchange. Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a strategic partnership agreement during his recent trip to Pyongyang and meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
