The NORKS might have decided that perhaps our Navy isn’t all it’s Cracked up to be, so why be fearful.

The headline is a little misleading. Just about all missiles of this type are ballistic, which retry much means they are powered on the way up and free fall on the way down. The little rockets I shot up as a kid were ballistic.

Oh they’re REALLY going to get it now..!
We’ve got a whole quiver of Gender-Fluid INTERSECTIONALITY missiles, all spun up and ready to go...!
The survivors will be finished off with ship collisions..!

Ballistic from the french, balle (bullet), leads many to believe the term denotes lack of terminal guidance, since bullets (for now) obviously are not guided.
While the terminal portion of missile flight certainly lacks powered flight, the missile usually does not go lacking for maneuverable *guidance*.
But I’m sure many will others will chime in on this point.

"The NORKS might have decided that perhaps our Navy isnt

And the Norks must really be laughing at the gender nonsense
going on in the US Navy. Why not test America again?

Heard two came apart mid flight and one blew up on the launch pad.

One of Obamas Navy ships, the USS HOMOSEXUAL, tried to collide with the missile, but was unsuccessful.

I wonder if they are experimenting with new type of missiles.

The US has a laser equpted 747 with a chemical powered laser at the nose of a 747 just for this type of thing.

That needs to become operational as-soon-as-possible.
Obama tried to sabotage it.
Note: I will not speculate on when or if it is ready.
