The U.S. believes that two recent North Korean missile tests featured a new intercontinental ballistic missile system that was initially revealed during a parade in 2020, according to a statement from Pentagon press secretary John Kirby.

“The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) conducted two ballistic missile tests on February 26 and March 4, 2022 EST. Based on analysis of these launches, the United States Government has concluded that these launches involved a new Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) system that the DPRK is developing, which was originally unveiled during the Korean Workers Party parade on October 10, 2020,” Kirby said.
