According to the publication, the missile should be an updated version of the Korean tactical surface-to-surface missile (KTSSM), called the “long-range artillery killer.”
While the existing KTSSM system operates on a stationary platform, it is expected that the new missile will be launched on a mobile launcher, which will increase its maneuverability and strength.
So, if the KTSSM has a range of 180 kilometers with a caliber of 400 millimeters, it is expected that the upgraded version of the missile will be larger with a longer range of about 300 km.
Recall that last year North Korea intensified its weapons demonstrations, which included a series of rocket and artillery launches, which it called the so-called “simulated nuclear strikes on targets in South Korea and the United States.”
We add that in South Korea they said that they were even considering the possibility of placing on their territory or manufacturing nuclear weapons to contain the DPRK.
