North Korea turning Scud-ER into anti-ship ballistic missile

North Korea has tested technology necessary to give its Scud-ER ballistic missiles with an anti-ship capability, JoongAng Ilbo reports.

Officials from South Korea’s Ministry of National Defense said tests were carried out last September and February.

Sources say Pyongyang probably inherited the know-how from Iran which has turned its Fateh missile into an anti-ship weapon.
