Mapping the Threat of North Korea

June 28, 2017 | Politics

For decades, undeterred by sanctions and international isolation, North Korea has been increasing the power and range of its arsenal of missiles. It is in a position today to rapidly hit densely populated targets throughout East Asia. With an intercontinental ballistic missile, its reach would become global. The missiles shown here include those already in the Kim regime’s arsenal—the Scud series, the No-dong, and the KN-02—and those in development. (For more on the threat—and on how the U.S. should respond—read Mark Bowden’s cover story “How to Deal With North Korea.”)
