UNTESTED, BUT OMINOUS: While President Trump misses few opportunities to boast that the U.S. military has the world’s best weapons — including a “super duper” missile that he claims is 17 times faster than any other — North Korea has paraded a super duper missile of its own to mark the Oct. 10 75th anniversary of the founding of the Korea Workers’ Party.

The massive missile, mounted on an 11-axel launch vehicle, was the star of the annual military display in Pyongyang’s central square. “What North Korea has shown us, what appears to be a new liquid-fueled ICBM that seems to be a derivative of what was tested back in late 2017, known as the Hwasong-15, is much bigger and clearly more powerful than anything in the DPRK’s arsenal,” says Harry Kazianis, a Korea expert at the Center for the National Interest. “Such a massive road-mobile missile — likely the biggest such missile on the planet — would have the capability to add either increased range or be able to carry a bigger payload.”
