Pyongyang tested the Pukguksong-3 ballistic missile on Wednesday, ahead of the resumption of disarmament talks with the U.S. this weekend.
"The Pukguksong is now looking over hostile forces currently hunkering down in dark caves," the newspaper added."It is a time bomb hanging behind their back and the most fearful dagger that will destruct all enemies."
KCNA explained that the weapon was fired in"vertical mode," which is often used to test ballistic missiles. If fired at a normal trajectory, its range would have been much longer.reported that the Pukguksong-3 is believed to have a range of some 1,180 miles. This is not far enough to hit U.S. territory, though a submarine armed with the weapon could sail closer to American targets putting them in reach.
SBLMs are extremely hard to detect until they are launched, making it difficult to launch an early strike to neutralize the North's nuclear arsenal in the event of a conflict.
