South Korea's Lee welcomes home Arctic container ship as route faces viability tests
South Korea recently conducted a successful test of a domestically developed hypersonic boost-glide vehicle, which has the potential to pose a significant threat to North Korea's underground bunkers. This development is part of South Korea's broader policy of Korea Massive Punishment and Retaliation, which aims to hold targets in North Korea at risk.
The hypersonic missile, which travels at speeds above Mach 5, offers advanced bunker-busting capabilities due to its high speed and maneuverability. South Korea is also developing other hypersonic weapons, including an air-breathing hypersonic cruise missile and new air- and sea-launched ballistic missiles. The test highlights the ongoing arms race on the Korean peninsula, with concerns also growing from China and Russia.
