N. Korea confirms launch of new intermediate-range hypersonic ballistic missile
“North Korea said the missile flew some 1,500 kilometers at 12 times the speed of sound the previous day during the testing overseen by leader Kim Jong-un via a monitoring system, according to the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA).”
“In an apparent show of the missile’s improved capabilities, the KCNA said the hypersonic glide vehicle atop the new IRBM reached its first peak at a height of 99.8 km and the second at 42.5 km while making a 1,500-km-long flight as scheduled before hitting a designated target point at sea.”
