They are planning to launch satellite this year. 1998 attempt 2006 attempt 2009 attempt 2012 attempt, success 2016 success 2023? planned 1.5 ton payload enough for capsule and decelerator.

North Korea would have been first one if it not abandoned Paektusan. They went with Unha in 2006 hence sequence of failures until 2012. Though North Korea doesn't need to use Unha ever again as SLV. Since they developed Hwasong-15 ICBM of comparable impulse. Much more efficient since 30-40 tons...

Safir is based on North Korean Paektusan SLV. As too Simorgh based on Unha from North Korea.

Owj is most advanced variant of J85 and not crude J79 series. Latter has way more compressor stages and one more turbine. But former has twin spool axle and annular combustor. Hence latter is more complex, but less advanced. Former stepping stone for FJ33 turbofan clone. Thus creation of Jahesh...

Iran is producing more and more components from CFM-56 high bypass turbofan engine that is derivative of low bypass F-101 used in B-1 Lancer strategic bomber. RD-33 is a notch below F-101 in terms of thrust and Iran could go for F110 equivalent that is used on F-16 and F-15 along F118 on B-2...

It will always make more economical sense to produce it domestically. Because in the long term it is cheaper as money spent circulates domestically. Only reason to import what can be produced domestically if domestic production isn't of sufficient quantity.

It is considerably smaller than Hwasong-17. But still performs better than Hwasong-15. It having solid fuel rocket motors is advantage. Since it can respond far more quickly than 15 and 17. Tube is longer probably as safety measure. Since cap at front is being detachabled. Though it could be...

2.2 meter diameter by itself is not necessary for MRV or even MIRV as 1.4 meter diameter is more than enough for four warheads. Though it is trade off between range and payload with larger diameter and longer missile the greater range and payload capacity. Though we don't know exact diameter of...

North Korea has tested solid fuel ICBM Hwasong-18.

You're uneducated arrogant ignorant illiterate. North Korea is under sanctions since forever and such increased vastly since 1990s. Iran would not have been in such position if there weren't being sanctioned by regimes based on genocide, theft and treachery.

Then they would not sanction North Korea. North Korea could have hit anywhere in mainland Japan since late 1990s.

Haeil-2 UUV 71 hour endurance 1000 kilometer range

Chances of him being in DPRK is equal to zero. Anyway size estimate range from 40 centimeter diameter with 90 centimeter length to 50 centimeter diameter with 100 centimeter length. Since North Korea has conducted in total 6 nuclear tests with progressive complexity, it could be fully digitally...

Well it can be repurposed/used for training.

We know that when we see your replies.

Says you an uneducated arrogant ignorant illiterate.

Live in denial.

Only giant SCUD that North Korea made was Hwasong-7 that is MRBM with maximum range of 1500 kilometers at most. Their only IRBM is not an SCUD as it is throttled down RD-250 with a single nozzle with range of up to 4500 kilometers, nearly ICBM. Since you mentioned SCUD, North Korea developed...

It is a standardized nuclear warhead with missiles having standardized attachment for it. Estimates of warhead is 40cm by 90cm to 50cm by 100cm so probably not simple implosion type. Could be thermonuclear warhead with similar size to one that were used by America for BGM-109.
