New Missiles On Display At North Korea's Military Parade

NORTH KOREA

North Korean state media confirmed that Kim Jong-un's regime staged a large military parade last night to mark the 75th anniversary of the founding of its armed forces.

  • The official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) described the intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) showcased yesterday as representing Pyongyang's "maximum nuclear attack capabilities."
  • South Korea's Yonhap News Agency reports that "one KCNA photo of the parade showed Hwasong-17 ICBMs, as well as what is presumed to be a new ICBM mounted on a transporter erector launcher (TEL) with 18 wheels."
  • There is speculation that the new ICBM could be a solid-propellant missile that the DPRK had been trying to build. Such missiles require less preparation time to launch and could boost North Korea's ability to conduct a surprise attack on U.S. mainland.
  • Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un attended the event with his wife Ri Sol-ju and apparent second child. The KCNA did not report whether he delivered a speech at the parade.
