Modified SS-26? edit

Latest comment: 6 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Where does the information that the Hyunmoo 2A is a "modified SS-26" (Russian Iskander) come from? It would be very surprising indeed if Russia were to provide technical details of one of its main tactical assets to an ally of the US. The "See also" list also states that the Hyunmoo 1 was based on the MIM-14 Nike Hercules, but this was an anti-aircraft missile, not a surface-to-surface ballistic missile like the Hyunmoo 1. If this latter information is correct, however, it should be referred to in the main text, not merely in the "See also" section. The specifics of the Hyunmoo 1 appear to be directly copied from those of the Nike Hercules. If they were, in fact, the same missile, there would have been no need for a separate South Korean test launch (the specifics are identical to the non-nuclear Nike Hercules provided by the US to several other countries) nor would the US have any reason to ask for technical information on their own missile.--Death Bredon (talk) 10:34, 5 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

What kind? edit

I'm not sure weather or not this is a nuclear or conventional weapon. Can the article state so directly?

Divide into separate articles? edit

As the number of Hyunmoo missiles increases and the missiles in question become increasingly... different (and as news coverage of the massive South Korean missile buildup continues to build up) it might be wise to divide this article into separate articles for each missile model.
