新型弾道ミサイル:

「玄武4」(仮称)の試射は、失敗に終わりました。

GP(監視哨所)銃撃事件

今月3日「北朝鮮軍によるGP(監視哨所)銃撃時、遠隔射撃システムが正確に作動しなかったこと」も、明らかになった。

韓国軍は北朝鮮対応態勢の面で、総体的な問題点が表面化した。

韓国軍内外の懸念:

韓国軍内外では「北朝鮮が実際に挑発してきた場合、韓国軍はきちんと対応できないということもあり得る」という懸念が浮上している。

「玄武4」:韓国軍関係者

5月11日に発表、

  1. 「今年3月に忠清南道泰安郡沖で玄武4の初の試射が行われたが、失敗」
  2. 「原因は推進体の異常」
  3. 「今回、試射した2発の玄武4のうち1発が、不発」

と伝えられている。

韓米ミサイル開発指針:制限解除

韓国軍は2017年11月、韓米ミサイル指針により「射程800キロ、弾頭重量500キロ以下」という制限が解かれた

その後、新型弾道ミサイル開発に乗り出した。

しかし初の試射試験に失敗

一方、北朝鮮は、新型4点セットの完成も間近で、既に大陸間弾道ミサイル(ICBM)の発射にも成功した。

South Korea:Two missiles were test-fired but one of them reportedly failed.

South Korea conducts first test launch of Hyunmoo-4 ballistic missile

The South Korean military

conducted in mid-March the first test-firing of its new Hyunmoo-4 (also spelled Hyeonmu-4) ballistic missile,

some two-and-a-half years after Washington and Seoul had agreed to scrap the warhead weight limit for South Korean missiles stipulated in US-South Korean guidelines.

A South Korean military official told Jane’s on 10 May

that the first test launch of the 800-km-range weapon, which features a greater payload than previous Hyunmoo-series missile systems,

was conducted at the Agency for Defense Development’s (ADD’s) Anheung test site in Taean County, South Chungcheong Province.

Two missiles were test-fired but one of them reportedly failed.

No information was provided about the cause of the failure.

The original US-South Korean ballistic missile guidelines of 1979 stopped the development of South Korean ballistic missiles.

A revision made in 1997

allowed South Korea to develop a ballistic missile carrying a 500 kg warhead with a maximum strike range of 300 km.

This missile, initially known as the Hyunmoo-2 (also spelled Hyeonmu-2), is now known as the Hyunmoo-2A.

A further revision of the guidelines in 2012

permitted Seoul to extend the range and/or payload of its ballistic missiles.

For instance,

it allowed for South Korean ballistic missiles to havea maximum range

  1. of 800 km while carrying a 500 kg warhead;
  2. of 500 km while carrying a 1,000 kg warhead;
  3. of 300 km while carrying a 2,000 kg warhead.

This changed, however,

after US President Donald Trump and his South Korean counterpart, Moon Jae-in,

announced on 7 November 2017 that they had finalised a deal to scrap the warhead weight limit for South Korean missiles.

As a result,the Republic of Korea (RoK) military

has since been looking to increase fourfold the payload of some its missiles, either by modifying them or developing new ones, said officials.
