Hwasong-18

North Korea has unveiled new air defense missiles capable of destroying cruise missiles and attack drones. Undeclared missile bases have also been discovered, one of which is believed to contain intercontinental ballistic missiles.

North Korea has tested an intercontinental ballistic missile with a record altitude of more than 7,000 km. The launch took place against the backdrop of the DPRK's cooperation with Russia and the possible deployment of North Korean troops in Ukraine.

The DPRK leader inspected strategic missile bases and called for readiness to retaliate. The visit took place on the eve of the US presidential election, which may be an attempt to draw attention to Pyongyang's military power.

North Korea has test-fired the Hwasong-18 ICBM. According to leader Kim Jong-un, this is a response to the US actions that are strengthening the military contingent in the region.
