Coming soon to a port near you....
That doesn’t sound ballistic to me..........
That sound editing was cute. Ok its a long distance artillery rocket. So it is likely “ballistic”.
Method used to launch EMP strike from Gulf of Mexico in nightmare scenario book One Second After.

I forget -- how'd that turn out for Korah and the other worshipers of the technostate-establishment?

Title says BALLISTIC missile. Contents of article say it’s a GUIDED missile.
Also, I don’t see what is so difficult about launching a truck mounted GUIDED missile from the truck while it is perched on some kind of flattop ship.
I don’t think the Israeli one will - they’re usually reasonably careful who they sell things like this to.
However, the Russians have a completely containerized launcher and missile system and they will cheerfully sell it to anyone with money.

Modern Q-ship.
Something Iran or North Korea might copy.
Ballistic missiles can be guided as well in modern terminology. :P ICBMs are ballistic missiles with guidance and have been for decades.
Look at my post above for why it’s concerning. They’re planning on dismounting the system from the truck and encasing it in a shipping container, which is similar to what the Russians are already doing. However, shipboard launch of such missiles has been a problem in the past - the motion of the ship upsets the gyros in the missile.
So many questions.
Why sign a treaty with Russian? Why are we still adhering to a treaty signed in the 80’s?
Why a treaty that bans missiles with a maximum range between 300 to 3,400 miles? Couldn’t you design one that flies 2,000 miles then turns around and flies back 1,400 miles to hit a target 600 miles away?
Given Israel enemies, is it good for Israel to design missiles that fit in a shipping container?
See post #8...............
Looks kinda like a V-2.
You can never have too many rockets.
Sort of like a Zumwalt at 1/1000th of the price....
“...nearly 250 miles away within 10 minutes thanks to an unspecified “supersonic velocity.””
Yessir!! That’ll take some mighty powerful cypherin’ to figgur out!
And this is exactly the danger the Norkies pose, IMHO.
This makes every container vessel a potential Q-ship. Naval strategy turned on its ear. If anything afloat in near international waters can potentially “be carrying” imagine a coordinated strike? Pearl Harbor on steroids.
You beat me to the Q-ship analogy... great minds...
