N. Korea May Have More Missiles To Launch
2006-07-06
SEOUL, South Korea -- Major South Korean newspapers are reporting that North Korea has three or four more missiles on launch pads and ready for firing.

According to one of South Korea's largest dailies, a senior South Korean official says the missiles are either short- or medium-range.

The paper says the North has also barred people from sailing into some areas off the coast until July 11 in a possible sign of preparations for additional launches.

#10  I'm sure that the New York Slimes can dig out that information if they really try. After all, it is not anything about a particular operation, and I am sure that somehow Bushitler could misuse those frequencies somehow. So the people have a right to know. /sarcasm

#9  The term just came to me, "shield harmonics."

Thanks, OP. We just don't know what they know. Rummy's unknown unknowns.

#8  a2u - the Aegis radar works with a wide range of frequencies, and can even do mid-pulse frequency changes. What the Chinese get are primary test and daily operations frequencies, not war-status frequencies. The US isn't COMPLETELY stupid...

One of the primary requirements for AEGIS was the ability to work on multiple frequencies, and to use a wide variety of options to ensure operations in the most degrading electronic environment. China got NOTHING other than daily operational data. While they can get quite a bit of information that's useful, it won't help in a tactical or strategic confrontation.

Enterprise D v. The Borg.

Develop rotating frequencies. Easier said than done.

#6  Security believes that Nork missle launches allow the Chicoms to monitor the airwaves to asertain our security frequencies. Therefore, the Chicoms can use that intel to neutralize American responce to any future military actions. Strategic and tactical changes coming soon. If Taiwan launches their own missle, we will pick up Chicoms security frequencies. Poker, anyone ?

#3  Will say again that Taiwan, SOuth Korea, and other Asian nations are all PC steppingstones to China's ultimate Asian agenda the subornment and knockout of Japan. Once America-West is gone, all gloves will come off between Global Proletarian Revolution-happy Secular Communists-Socialists, and Global Caliphate-Muslim State-happy Radical Islamists, i.e God/Faith-based Socialists.

#2  As long as those missles don't threaten to hit anything we will "not do shit" which is how it is in the real world.


Kimmie is a fool and just wasting resources and spurring Japan into a rearmament program and placing more sanctions on North Korea. The Chinese are fools for letting this proceed as well.

#1  Go ahead and shoot. We won't do shit. We already proved that.
