And it's been debunked also. This missile systems has never even been tested, let alone deployed.
"Events in North Korea are indeed worrying, but the public debate is not helped by exaggerating the threat.
Most of our information about North Korean missiles comes from observing flight tests; so we know much about the shorter-range missiles that the North Koreans have flown. But Pyongyang has not tested intercontinental-range missiles. Without flight tests, U.S. intelligence analysts can only estimate the sophistication of North Korean technology and the calculated range of any large missile is extremely sensitive to these estimates."
