    Default LIL KIM fired off 2more MISSILEs today! Trump, 'we never restricted SHORT RANGE ones'

    Oh well, I thought he told TRUMP when we stopped our 'war games', he wouldn't fire any more. We stopped them last week as I remember. Just HAD TO lob one more. Another little boy with his 'phallic' toys? Besides Trump says he likes to do it AND we never discussed short range missiles. Yepper, he said that see QUOTE below.

    N. Korea test-fires missiles again after joint drills end

    People watch a TV news program reporting North Korea’s firing of projectiles with a file image of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un at the Seoul Railway Station in Seoul, South Korea, Saturday, Aug. 24, 2019. North Korea fired two suspected short-range ballistic missiles off its east coast on Saturday in the seventh consecutive week of weapons tests, South Korea’s military said, a day after it threatened to remain America’s biggest threat in protest of U.S.-led sanctions on the country. The Korean letters read: “North Korea fired projectiles.” (Lee Jin-man/Associated Press)

    SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea fired two suspected short-range ballistic missiles off its east coast on Saturday in the seventh weapons launch in a month, South Korea’s military said, a day after it threatened to remain America’s biggest threat in protest of U.S.-led sanctions on the country.

    The North had been expected to halt weapons tests because the 10-day U.S.-South Korean drills, which it views as an invasion rehearsal, ended earlier this week.

    President Donald Trump downplayed the latest launch.

    “Kim Jong Un has been, you know, pretty straight with me. ... He likes testing missiles but we never restricted short-range missiles. We’ll see what happens,” Trump told reporters outside the White House late Friday night.

    Saturday’s launches were made from northeastern South Hamgyong province, South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said. They flew about 380 kilometers (236 miles) at the maximum altitude of 97 kilometers (60 miles), the military said...

    FFS they have artillery that are a much more potent threat against Seoul, so short range just isn't that strategic important

    And if they keep testing they just might get MORE ACCURACY on the 'short' or 'long' range. Kinda the whole point!

    Ch-riist!

    long range is a much different animal instead of basically up and down (short). there is a longer trajectory.
    That means they have to be aware of ABM systems, as well as survivability of re-entry for intercontinental range

    It certainly can with INTENT and practice. While he's sending up the short ones, what's he working on to FOOL us? No, I have absolutely no faith in what we know with specificity AND I have no faith that TRUMP can read him...

    This is just about a year old--from the CFR (Council of Foreign Relations)


    What are North Korea’s nuclear capabilities?

    More on:
    North Korea
    Nuclear Weapons
    Kim Jong-un
    The Korea Summit
    Defense Technology

    North Korea has tested a series of different missiles, including short-, medium-, intermediate-, and intercontinental- range, and submarine-launched ballistic missiles.

    Estimates of the country’s nuclear stockpile vary: some experts believe Pyongyang has between ten and thirty nuclear weapons, while U.S. intelligence officials have estimated the number to be between thirty and sixty. The regime successfully tested intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM), each capable of carrying a large nuclear warhead, in July and November 2017. Pyongyang said that in its November testing of the new Hwasong-15 ICBM, the missile hit an altitude of 4,475 kilometers (2,780 miles), far above the International Space Station, and flew about 1,000 kilometers (590 miles) before landing in the sea off Japan’s coast. Analysts estimate the Hwasong-15 has a potential range of 13,000 kilometers (8,100 miles) and, if fired on a flatter trajectory, could reach anywhere on the U.S. mainland.

    American analysts and experts from other countries still debate the nuclear payload that the ICBM could carry, and it is still unclear whether the ICBMs have the capability to survive reentry. A confidential U.S. intelligence assessment from July 2017 reportedly concluded that North Korea has developed the technology to miniaturize a nuclear warhead to fit its ballistic missiles. And some experts caution that it is only a matter of time before North Korea completes its nuclear force. “We’re going to have to learn to live with North Korea’s ability to target the United States with nuclear weapons,” said Jeffrey Lewis of the Middlebury Institute of Strategic Studies.


    https://www.cfr.org/backgrounder/nor...y-capabilities

    North Korea has conducted six nuclear tests, first in October 2006 and then in May 2009 under Kim Jong-il. Under Kim Jong-un’s leadership, the country detonated weapons in February 2013, January and September 2016, and September 2017. The regime possesses the know-how to produce bombs with weapons-grade uranium or plutonium, the primary elements required for making fissile material—the core component of nuclear weapons.

    With each test, North Korea’s nuclear explosions have grown in power. The first explosion in 2006 was a plutonium-fueled atomic bomb with a yield equivalent to two kilotons of TNT, an energy unit used to measure the power of an explosive blast. The 2009 test had a yield of eight kilotons; the 2013 and January 2016 tests both had yields of approximately seventeen kilotons; and the September 2016 test had a yield of thirty-five kilotons, according to data from the Nuclear Threat Initiative, a Washington, D.C.-based nonpartisan think tank. (For comparison, the U.S. bomb dropped on Hiroshima in 1945, the first atom bomb, had an estimated yield of sixteen kilotons.

    I saw the Trump quote about "he likes to test them" and included that in my title, thinking it was FUNNY--in a dismissive TRUMPIAN WAY. So did the Hill.
