The title is misleading. On the other hand, maybe they can fit a nuclear warhead to their rocket, and send it to space to stay in a stable orbit circling around the globe. Then they can threaten that they will initiate re-entry anytime they want. It is probably totally ineffective as a weapon for a host of technical reasons, but quite useful for terrorizing the world.

Yup. Besides, any missile site that posed an actual threat could be, and I expect would be, easily taken out. I can’t imagine Beijing would be happy either with Kim’s Young ‘un lobbing nuke missles around.

Maybe the Euros should get serious about 2% of their GDP to NATO.

Well, Europe has a use for those expensive American missile defense systems after all.

This sounds ominous. Looking closely at the rockets I noticed in small print acme rocket company which is the same one that Wile E. Coyote uses.

With the critical, and failure prone, initial boost phase over China and Russia on a NK to Europe trajectory... they’ve got to love the idea of playing fallout catcher for a failed launch. How reliable are those TD2’s? Can they really loft RV weight that far? Falling short is, well, Moscow?

If you can achieve orbit, you can hit any point on earth. A “minimum energy trajectory” connecting any two points on earth always uses less energy than an orbital trajectory.

They will get it right someday. And when that happens, expect them to try and blackmail every GD country they can think of.
Then, let Iran get them and watch what happens.
The Japanese had no problem flying airplanes into our ships in WW2, so these bastards have no problem killing everything they want.
