North Korea's missle launch, success or failure?
Japan is the likely target of this short-range missile. Rodong is almost identical to Iran's Shahab-3 and Pakistan's Ghauri II (Hatf V), the strongest evidence of the countries' collaboration and of North Korean sale of technology and missile equipment to others. All three countries continue to refine the design. Estimated range of 620 to 930 miles (1,000 to 1,500 kilometers) and maximum payload of 2,200 pounds (1,000 kilograms). They are single-stage, liquid-fuel missiles on mobile launchers. Most have fairly poor accuracy, though some may have been fitted with warhead separation and more modern guidance systems.

Woah! I didn't know all that, good info.
ReplyDeleteMongolia would agree that action should have been taken if North Korea's rocket had launched.
ReplyDeletemy country is kenya and they dont really ahve a very strong opinion on this subject. They disagree on what they did but we choose to stay out of it for the most part, and go on living our life.
ReplyDeleteMy country of Australia agrees with most countrys on this issue. They dont support it, and usually think along the lines of the UN.
ReplyDeleteThe missile launched by north korea was a failure. North Korea launched the satallite but didnt have fair accuracy to put it where they wanted.
ReplyDeletethe Eu also says that this was a complete failure
