North Korea Tests Mysterious ‘Tactical Guided Weapon’ After Failed Trump-Kim SummitThe North Korean leader personally observed the new weapon test on Wednesday, KCNA reported, without providing details, other than saying it has a “peculiar mode of guiding flight” with a “powerful warhead”.

“The completion of the development of the weapon system serves as an event of very weighty significance in increasing combat power,” Kim stated.

The second summit between President Donald Trump and Kim in Hanoi, Vietnam, in February wrapped up early, after the two leaders failed to reach an accord on the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. While Washington insisted that North Korea should get rid of their missile and nuclear weapon programs, Kim allegedly made it clear that Trump must offer sanctions relief before the denuclearization process can proceed.

In the wake of the failed summit, Kim had promised to boost defense while giving the White House until the end of the year to change its “posture” in dealing with Pyongyang.
