North Korea's missile program and its objectives



North Korea 's missile arsenal , has evolved over the past decades of makeshift rockets fired by artillery pieces derived from designs used in World War II to the mid - range missiles can hitting targets in the Pacific.
It seems that the recent North Korea 's efforts are focused on the production of long - range missiles could hit targets could be on the American mainland.
North Korea 's recent efforts are concentrated in this area to produce long - range missiles can rely on their ability to reach the American mainland.
On the fourth of July 2017, Pyongyang said it had conducted its first successful test of an intercontinental ballistic missile. She said that the missile Hwasong 14 has the ability to hit "anywhere in the earth," but US initial estimates indicate that the range of the missile less. The US military described as a missile Hwasong 14 medium - range missile, but a number of American experts said they believed that he could reach the state of Alaska and North America.
Since 2012, the two were seen from intercontinental ballistic missiles (two and KN-08 KN-14) in Pyongyang 's military reviews conducted periodically.
Believed that the missile KN-08 with three phases, called back - modified tanker, over more than 11,500 kilometers.
The missile KN-14, it seems that a two - stage missile with a range of about 10 thousand kilometers.
It has not been any of the rockets tested yet, but the pictures recently published indicate that the two rockets engines tests are under way in full swing, and refers to the tests on the thermal shield for a nuclear warhead on a missile may be installed in the future. But it is believed, despite this progress, North Korea still lacks the ability to target a city accurately intercontinental ballistic missiles, and believes it lacks the ability to produce a nuclear warhead small enough to be carried by rockets owned.

Why Pyongyang insists on intercontinental ballistic missiles production?
Seen intercontinental ballistic missiles as a symbol to express force , as it allows the country , which is owned by an enormous correction firepower on his enemies , despite their presence on the other side of the earth.
The main justification for spending real money, time and effort to develop these missiles is used to carry nuclear weapons.
During the Cold War, the Soviet Union and the United States has sought to reach different ways to protect their missiles and deliver them to their goals. These rockets were hidden in private or loaded on large trucks or aboard submarines patrolling the ocean silos.
It is worth mentioning that all intercontinental ballistic missiles designed by similar concepts, it is a multi - stage missile with solid fuel or means of carrying warheads into outer space.
After the arrival of these warheads - the hydrogen bombs , usually - to outer space, dating back to the Earth 's atmosphere and explode above its target or set it directly. And some intercontinental ballistic missiles with more than one nuclear warhead, allowing it to strike several targets simultaneously and deceive missile defense systems.
During the Cold War, the extent of intercontinental ballistic missiles and the threat posed by the foundations of the principle of "common mass destruction (MAD)" that prevailed at the time.
This is seen as a principle helped in the restoration of peace because neither side can of victory in a nuclear war without incurring huge losses.

History of North Korea 's missile program ,
North Korea launched its missile missiles "Scud," It is said that the first shipment of these missiles and their relevance in 1976 through Egypt. By 1984, Pyongyang produced its version of these missiles under the name of "Hwasong."
The missiles have a range of a maximum of about a thousand kilometers, and it could carry conventional warheads and chemical and perhaps even biological.
North Koreans have developed a "Hwasong" missiles, and produces "Nodong" missiles with a range of 1,300 kilometers.
In an analysis published in the April / April 2016, the International Institute for Strategic Studies , said that these developed missiles could "hit all of South Korea and large parts of Japan."
North Korea continued to develop its missile capability . In 2016 developed a "Musudan" missile , which has a range of about 2,500 kilometers. According to other sources , the extent of this missile could reach 4,000 kilometers.
He received another development in August 2016, when North Korea announced it had tested a missile , " the land of the land of medium to long - term" submarine - launched called "Bocgoxong."
It launched the latest model of the rocket from the ground base in February 2017.
