“North Digs Silos for Missiles in Mt. Paektu Area”
by Jeong Yong-Soo
(October 10, 2013)
SNIPPET: “Several South Korean government sources confirmed yesterday that the North has numerous underground missile launch facilities around 2,000 meters (2,190 yards) south of Mount Paektu. The silos, they said, were constructed in the mid-2000s and were determined to have been completed recently.”
SNIPPET: “Underground facilities at Mount Paektu add a new layer of threat atop a missile facility in Musudan-ri, North Hamgyong province, and a rocket launch site in Cholsan County, North Pyongan.
If North Korea has deployed its intermediate-range ballistic missiles, with a reach of over 3,000 kilometers, near Mount Paektu, that puts Japan’s Okinawa, where a U.S. base is located, in range, as well as Guam. “
SNIPPET: “The location around Mount Paektu appears to have been chosen because of its proximity to Chinese borders, making it difficult for the United States or South Korea to attack that area.”
SNIPPET: “The source added that it has not been determined where the North has hidden its 40-60 kilograms (88-132 pounds) of plutonium, an amount which can produce around 10 nuclear weapons.”
