Yayınlanma tarihi: Nis 05, 2013

South Korean satellites picked up mobile missile systems being moved to the east coast of North Korea. The missiles in question are medium and long range ballistic missile systems. But it's not certain whaich missiles they are. It could be the KN-08 intercontinental ballistic missiles also known as Hwasong-13 or it could be Musudan intermediate range ballistic missiles. This kind of mobile missile systems are really meant for surprise attacks, something that stationary launch sites cannot do. Mobile system are harder to locate and once launched its harder to calculate the launch time, the missiles trajectory and direction. So the US will have to deploy significant missile defense systems in order to cover for the potential targets.
