A South Korean F-15K fighter jet fired two JDAM bombs in response to North Korea’s launch of a medium-range ballistic missile. This is what the Joint Chiefs of Staff said, according to the South Korean agency Yonhap.
The bombs were reportedly dropped on a training target on the uninhabited island of Jikdo as part of a joint exercise with US fighter jets. The strike group trained four Korean F-15K fighters and four American F-16s.
“Through the joint strike team flight and precision air strike training, South Korea and the United States demonstrated their readiness to respond decisively to any threat to the DPRK and their ability to deliver targeted strikes,” the Joint Chiefs of Staff said. .
It will be recalled that North Korea launched a ballistic missile on the morning of October 4, which flew over Japan and landed in the Pacific Ocean. It caused an air alert in the country and a temporary suspension of train traffic in northern Japan. The rocket covers about 4500 kilometers.
Last week, Pyongyang tested missiles three times, launching them toward the Sea of Japan.
