THE country said it has successfully tested “a new cutting-edge weapons system” involving hypersonic projectiles as part of a defence programme to enhance strategic deterrence against enemies.
Two hypersonic projectiles were launched from a region near the capital, Pyongyang, and hit a target inland in the country’s northeast, state news agency KCNA reported yesterday.
