North Korea Tests Cluster-Bomb Warhead for Tactical Ballistic Missiles
North Korea has tested a cluster-bomb warhead designed for tactical ballistic missiles, confirming its capability to destroy a target area of 12 to 13 hectares at maximum density. The country's Missile Administration classifies these warheads into four types, planning to enable military units to deploy all variants by the end of 2026 or this year, depending on the source. South Korea and the United States monitored the missile launch, which was fired toward the sea, amid ongoing regional security concerns.
