#1 Interesting they are firing 2-3 missiles each time.
Wonder if that is execution protocol, for a primary and secondary weapon delivery initiated by local command, or an exercise of C&C as two separate orders?
Wonder if there were primary and secondary targets? Or any. Maybe these were just C&C launch tests.
Wonder if the target telemetry uploads were realtime feeds thru C&C or preprogrammed.
Wonder if ease/west seas and east/west costal defense are centrally coordinated?
Maybe this testing is sequenced as new C&C systems are brought online.

#2 probably not a good idea to land an aircraft carrier group on North Korean territory

#3 Yeah, they might be hit by 3 working demo missiles.
