North Korea Conducts Test Fire of Its Multiple Launch Rocket System

Another typical North Korean playbook play here with conducting a test firing that corresponds with a U.S. holiday:

A projectile mounted on a super-large multiple rocket launcher is launched from North Korea’s western region toward the East Sea on Oct. 31, 2019, in this photo released by the North’s official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) the next day. According to the KCNA, the North successfully tested a super-large multiple rocket launcher, verifying the “perfection” of the weapons system. 

North Korea fired two projectiles from what is presumed to be a super-large multiple rocket launcher on Thursday, South Korea’s military said, in the latest in a series of military moves amid stalled denuclearization talks with the United States.

The projectiles were fired from Yeonpo in the country’s eastern South Hamgyong Province into the waters off the east coast at around 4:59 p.m., the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said in a release. 

Both flew around 380 km, reaching a maximum altitude of around 97 km, and were fired within a 30-second interval, the JCS added.
