N. Korea Deploying Missiles Said to Threaten U.S.

Looks like North Korea is increasing it's range:

BERLIN (Reuters) - North Korea is deploying new land- and sea-based ballistic missiles that can carry nuclear warheads and may have sufficient range to hit the United States, according to the authoritative Jane's Defense Weekly.

In an article due to appear Wednesday, Jane's said the two new systems appeared to be based on a decommissioned Soviet submarine-launched ballistic missile, the R-27.

"It would fundamentally alter the missile threat posed by the DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) and could finally provide its leadership with something that it has long sought to obtain -- the ability to directly threaten the continental U.S.," the weekly said.

The article goes on to say that not only will NK have a greater missile range, but it could sell the technology on to other countries, such as Iran.

im sure the us already knows their plans. well just have to see!

Something tells me the source of this article lives in Langley, VA if you catch my drift....
