A hypersonic missile is among the high-tech weapons systems that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un vowed to introduce to cope with what he called deepening U.S. hostility.
North Korea successfully tested a solid-fuel engine for its new-type intermediate-range hypersonic missile, state media reported Wednesday, claiming progress in efforts to develop a more powerful, agile missile designed to strike faraway U.S. targets in the region.
A hypersonic missile is among an array of high-tech weapons systems that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un publicly vowed to introduce in 2021 to cope with what he called deepening U.S. hostility. Outside experts say Kim wants a modernized weapons arsenal to wrest U.S. concessions like sanctions relief when diplomacy resumes.
On Tuesday, Kim guided the ground jet test of the multi-stage solid-fuel engine for the hypersonic missile at the North’s northwestern rocket launch facility, the official Korean Central News Agency reported.
everyone mocks until success. we were laughing at their last attempts and doing rockets and then they hit their goals and we all freaked out for a week.
Do you really think they’re ever going to get to the point where they’re an actual threat to the United States of America? Sure… South Korea needs to worry. Japan? Yeah.
But threatening the USA? Those fucks will find out why we don’t have health care or a functional educational system.
I never said that. I was responding to your comment that they could barely hit the ocean.
Which…is clearly a joke. Of course they can hit the ocean. If they didn’t hit the ocean when they fired into the ocean that would mean the missiles accidently kept flying forever. Like Arthur Dent throwing himself at the ground and missing.
or they hit themselfs
lol of course lets not forget when they don’t even fire them. they just raise some missles and are like ‘LOOK AT US LOOK AT US WE HAVE WEAPONS WE COULD FIRE THEM GRRRRRRRRRR’ then they lower them a few weeks later when the world gives them enough attention.
