South Korea has unveiled this missile that can mount the heaviest weapons in the world. This is a ballistic missile. It can install warheads weighing up to 9,000 kilograms. This means conventional weapons or nuclear weapons. The Hunmu-5 missile will be launched on October 1, 2024. The missile is also a dangerous bunker buster.
The same missile that Israel used to kill Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Much more powerful than that. The scale was many times greater and caused horrific damage. It is also known as Monster Missile. The 36-ton missile will fly out of the exosphere, or atmosphere, before falling into its target.
