This is the outdated Scud-B missile. It can be considered the
progenitor of the DPRK’s missile system. It was developed starting
in 1976 by disassembling and rebuilding missiles and launch
pads provided by the USSR in exchange for Pyongyang’s support
of Egypt during the 1973 Yom-Kippur War. The exact year its
development was completed is uncertain. It is estimated that
mass production and operational deployment of this missile started
in 1985. The Scud-B is the starting-point of the DPRK’s missile
program. |
