North Korea may have launched a modified version of Russian ballistic missiles

The missiles launched by North Korea on Thursday may be a modified version of the Russian Iskander short-range ballistic missile. This conclusion was made by experts from South Korea.

North Korea said it had test fired long-range cruise missiles on Tuesday and “tactical guided missiles” on Thursday.

“South Korean experts said the tactical guided missiles are likely a modified version of Iskander missiles that follow an unpredictable trajectory with increased maneuverability towards the target,” the report said.

As for the cruise missiles launched by the DPRK on Tuesday, it is believed that they may be a new type, first presented at a defense exhibition in Pyongyang last October.
