N.Korea’s SLBM reaches the final stage of deployment: Chosun Sinbo

Pro-North Korea outlet claims advanced development of SLBM, implies testing complete

North Korea’s submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) reached “the final stage in preparation for deployment”, the Tokyo-based pro-North media outlet Chosun Sinbo reported on Thursday.

“The success of the test-firing based upon the higher-tech capabilities (compared to the past) demonstrated that it's not long till the SLBM, on which the Chosun’s national power is concentrated, is produced and is deployed for actual operations,” Chosun Sinbo said.
