N Korea ICBM hat Reichweite bis USA - sagt Japan

By Jordi Bou

November 18, 2022 - Nordkorea hat eine interkontinentale ballistische Rakete abgefeuert, die genügend Reichweite hat um das US Festland zu erreichen, wie Japans Verteidigungsminister feststellt

The launch adds to a record-breaking year for North Korea's missile programme, after it resumed testing ICBMs for the first time since 2017 and broke its self-imposed moratorium on long-range launches as denuclearisation talks stalled.

The launch is suspected to be of the new Hwasong-17, North Korea’s longest-range two-stage ICBM, according to South Korean defence sources, reported Yonhap.

Its trajectory was similar to North Korea’s claimed test of a Hwasong-17 on March 22.
