Arctic Sea: Reverse flow to North Korea?


North Korea's No Dong ballistic missile has a tri-conic nose cone. That configuration is typically associated with Iran’s Shahab-3, causing analysts to say that technical information gleaned by Tehran in flight trials is being fed to Pyongyang. Such a move would suggest that Iran has made considerable progress in developing its indigenous missile-engineering ­expertise.The rapid rise is in Iranian ­lower-end rocket threats. The biggest worry stems from the fact that Iran is being equipped with inexpensive but effective guidance systems that have tightened targeting errors.
