On October 3, North Korea conducted a launch of a medium-range ballistic missile equipped with a Hypersonic Glide Vehicle (HGV) under the personal supervision of Kim Jong Un. The missile was launched from the Wonsan area, flew approximately 1,000 km, and struck a target in the Sea of Japan at 43.607789, 138.013061. The missile reportedly followed a special “wave-like” trajectory, which made tracking its flight more difficult for Japanese and South Korean forces. Seoul initially estimated the missile’s range at 700 km. The missile is possibly derived from the Hwasong-16B (Hwasong-16Na).
