ICBM payloads will take less than 30 minutes at that range.

But add two orbits before re-entry and it comes out just right.

Why anyone would program the orbits, however, isn't exactly clear. But then this is NK. Maybe deception pretending the payload is a satellite?

So although this is a hoax you never know what they'd do. I don't believe they currently have the launch capability to orbit a nuclear payload though.

Depends if the Norks deployed their Mainsails, Mizzenmasts, and the number of Jibs on their custom designed ICBM.
