Regarding the ballistic missiles launched by North Korea on February 27 and March 5, the Ministry of Defense has released analysis results that both were ICBM = intercontinental ballistic missile class.
It is the first time North Korea has launched an ICBM-class ballistic missile with a range of more than 5,500 kilometers since November 2017, five years ago.
On the 11th, the Ministry of Defense announced the results of an analysis of ballistic missiles launched by North Korea on February 27 and March 5, in collaboration with the US government.
According to it, both are ICBM = intercontinental ballistic missile class, which is the same as the one confirmed for the first time in the military parade held in October 2020.
In addition, the Ministry of Defense said that the ballistic missile on February 27 will fly at a maximum altitude of about 600 km and a distance of about 300 km, and the ballistic missile on March 5 will have a maximum altitude of about 550 km and will be 300. It is analyzed that it flew a distance of about a kilometer.
