Tested a new engine: the DPRK declared progress in the development of "hypersonic" rocket

The hard fuel rocket engine test took place in the northwest of the country. DPRK leader Kim Jong -in noted that the value of this rocket system is no less than intercontinental ballistic missiles. In North Korea, progress was made in the development of a more powerful and maneuverable rocket designed to defeat long -range targets in the United States.

Propaganda from the Agency of the TAK on March 20 reported that the military allegedly successfully tested a solid fuel engine for their medium -range hypersonic missile. According to the data, the tests were held at the Soh See in the northwest of the country under the leadership of the DPRK leader Kim Jong -in. In this case, the completion of the development of a new weapons system was established, "thanks to great success in an important test.

" "Given the circumstances of our country's safety and the operational requirement of the People's Army, the military-strategic value of this missile system is no less than intercontinental ballistic missiles, and it is better known to enemies," Kim Jong-in quotes. Western experts write that the hypersonic missile is one of the high -tech weapons systems that North Korean leader Kim Jong -in publicly promised to present in 2021 to cope with what he called "a deepening of the US hostility.

" According to the observers, Pyongyang seeks to upgrade the arsenal of his weapons to achieve concessions from Washington in terms of sanctions restrictions. Analysts also note that in recent years, North Korea insists on the development of more weapons with a built -in solid fuel engine. This is quite logical, since rockets with solid fuel engine (RDTP) have an advantage - they are more difficult to detect their launch, unlike lactes on liquid fuel that need to be fuel before starting.
