, with nuclear missiles?
“Washington Post” reported that 23 North Korea launched a satellite concern, the reason is that North Korea for decades has been in improving the multi-level long-range rocket launch technology, North Korea may be already has nuclear weapons, but can not create a small nuclear bombs that can be installed on a missile. Institute for Defense Studies of Japan’s defense ministry released the 2012 version of “East Asian Strategic Overview March 30, pointed out that North Korea’s nuclear weapons and missile R & D are becoming increasingly severe,” Once a nuclear warhead miniaturization progress, can be loaded into a ballistic, so will Japan and neighboring countries pose a major threat. ” The report that North Korea is committed to expanding ballistic missile range to enhance the mobile launchers performance, and maintain the system of implementation of the third nuclear test following the 2006 and 2009.
analysis pointed out that from a technical perspective, the satellite is the need for high-thrust rocket, especially in the remote transmitter to control the grasp of the technology, and these are the future development of the strategic missile base. If North Korea can successfully launch a satellite, then this technology into strategic missile launch would be very easy thing. This is the United States, Japan is an important reason for the tension.
the DPRK “Rodong Sinmun” published on March 31 reported that the spokesman for the commission of the peaceful reunification of Korea on 30 March expressed a determination to launch the “light star”. The spokesman said that the overreaction of the United States on North Korea’s peaceful satellite launch program is beyond the limit. For North Korea to invite foreign experts to visit North Korea satellite launch site, the United States not only declared not to send experts, and ask other countries not to send experts, indicating that the United States afraid of the objective to confirm the peaceful nature of North Korea satellite launch.
scheduled launch direction of mystery
outside noted that specific to the North Korea satellite launch, a message, especially aroused the suspicion of the United States and Japan: At present, the emission The satellites are usually launched from west to east, while the outside world observed the track of the DPRK satellite launch may be over by Jeju, then go to Ishigaki Island and the Kuril Islands, that is, the launch track south. Therefore, the skeptics pointed out that the DPRK would further prove that the purpose than satellite missile test.
According to experts in the satellite launch process, usually in accordance with the direction of rotation of the earth, that is launched from west to east. However, a country in the world is an exception, which is Israel. Due to the special geographical location of Israel, from west to east launch a satellite, then track it is bound through the densely populated Arab countries. As a result, not only bring the personnel security risks, in addition, Israel is also worried about the satellite to face the possibility of leaks. Therefore, Israel has taken the opposite direction of the launch, launch from east to west. However, to avoid more than two risk factors, but they had to pay another loss in Israel: the carrying capacity of the launch vehicle is the corresponding weakened.
At present, the vast majority of national satellite launch is the east, depending on location, sometimes Northeast, sometimes southeast, the main purpose of doing so is to improve the launch vehicle carrying capacity.
However, the DPRK’s spokesman stressed that the United States said North Korea satellite launch long-range missile launch, its political and military purposes, that is, an attempt by the Korean long-range missile capability to pose a threat to the United States “, etc. will justify its anti-missile system.
