North Korea Urges ‘Preparedness for War’ and Displays New fuel intercontinental ballistic missile
SEOUL — North Korea has unveiled what analysts said was a new, solid-fuel intercontinental ballistic missile during a nighttime military parade in Pyongyang on Wednesday, the latest example of the country’s effort to fill its arsenal with increasingly advanced nuclear technology.
The parade, celebrating the 75th anniversary of North Korea’s military, featured ICBMs and short-range “tactical nuclear” missiles that demonstrated the North’s “tremendous nuclear strike capability,” North Korean state media said on Thursday.
North Korea has frequently boasted about its weapons technology. But experts, saying the isolated country has often exaggerated its abilities, have expressed doubt that it has acquired the technology needed to hit targets across an ocean with ICBMs.
The state media did not specify the capabilities of individual weapons at the parade, but the photos it carried showed the Hwasong-17 — the North’s largest ICBM — which was tested in November. The photos also showed a new ICBM-sized canister, a tube from which a missile is launched.

Although it was unclear if the canister was a mock-up or contained a real missile, it was mounted on a nine-axle vehicle, indicating that it was roughly the size of the North’s Hwasong-15 ICBM, first test-launched in 2017.
