Among the weapons on display are at least 10 Hwasong-17 intercontinental missiles, the most advanced in the country, and vehicles that appear to have been designed – write analysts at NK News, a website specializing in North Korea – to carry the feared solid-propelled missiles . According to the official KCNA news agency, among the columns of missiles equipped with the “maximum” atomic attack capability, “nuclear tactical units” also paraded in the square, demonstrating the country’s “powerful deterrence and counterattack capability”.
