North Korea appears to be building a new ballistic missile capable submarine,... and maybe be making preparations to test a missile.
Analyzing satellite photos of Sinpo South Shipyard taken on Monday,... Joseph Bermudez and Victor Cha of Beyond Parallel, a research project funded by the Center for Strategic and International Studies,... confirmed reports by North Korean state media of a "newly built submarine".
The photos show support vessels and a crane that could be deployed to tow a barge out to sea for a submarine-launched test.
However, the analysts says it's unclear when or if a test could happen,... citing a lack of conclusive evidence right now.
