North Korea

Last week in the news it was reported that Intel sources had indicated that the long-range missile parts that where at the launch facility that last month fired a Taepo Dong-2 have been removed from the site. Two options are possible for this action.

1. North Korea is backing down from international pressure that it came under when it fired its missile on
2. As news source have been reporting that there has been increased activity at site that is suspected of being a site where a nuke test would happen. North Korea may be planning to go ahead with a test soon and has removed the missile parts from the launch site to a area where they can be better protected incase the US decides to strike at the site to prevent future tests and try to destroy any missiles there.

Today Insightmag.com is running a news story about China growing second-strike capability. The full article can be read at this Link.

The Ju Lang-2 sub missile was first tested last June of 2005. China for years has been working to expand its missile force beside positioning missiles on its coast aimed at Taiwan and increasing the numbers currently deployed, china also has been steadily developing new long range systems and improving its long range land based ICBM program. The new Ju-Lang gives china a crucial ability to target much of the United States if it can get its subs close enough to the continental United States. Subs are a lot harder to track and monitor then land based deployed systems, since they cannot be monitored by satellite so a launch from a sub can happen with little or no warning.

China has also showed an interest in anti missile defense system including the US Aegis Systems and patriot and developing similar systems for China as part of its modernizing of China’s military.
