كوريا الشمالية تختبر صاروخاً يطلق من غواصة

March 13, 2023 - يُعتقد أن كوريا الشمالية أجرت أول تجربة لإطلاق ”صواريخ كروز استراتيجية“ من غواصة، في استعراض واضح للقوة قبيل التدريبات العسكرية المشتركة بين الولايات المتحدة وكوريا الجنوبية.

KCNA said the strategic cruise missiles were fired from the “8.24 Yongung” submarine in the water off the east coast of Korea in the early hours of Sunday.

The missiles travelled some 1,500 kilometres before hitting a target in the sea, the KCNA report said.

North Korea often uses the word “strategic” to refer to weapons that are nuclear capable. The firing of cruise missiles from a submarine was believed to be a first for the country, The Japan Times said.
