Picture of the Day: North Korea’s New IRBM

A Hwasongpho-16B, a new type of intermediate-range solid-fueled ballistic missile equipped with a newly-developed hypersonic gliding warhead, is launched under the inspection of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on April 2, 2024, in this photo released by the North’s official Korean Central News Agency the following day. “The hypersonic glide warhead, separated from the missile after its launch towards the northeast at an army unit’s training field on the outskirts of Pyongyang, reached its first peak at the height of 101.1 kilometers and the second 72.3 kilometers while making 1 000-km-long flight as scheduled to accurately hit the waters of the East Sea,” the agency reported.
