has conducted a missile test with the longest flight time ever recorded, after it accused the US of flying spy planes in its airspace.
It flew about 1,000km at a maximum altitude of 6,000km for 74 minutes, Japan’s chief cabinet secretary Hirokazu Matsuno said, in what would be the longest ever flight time for a North Korean missile. It landed in waters between the Korean Peninsula and Japan. Experts believe North Korea tested its developmental Hwasong-18 ICBM, a type of solid-fuel weapon that is harder to detect and intercept than Pyongyang’s other liquid-fuel missiles., previously called the Hwasong-18 his most powerful nuclear weapon.
