DAHBOO 77 - TENSIONS RISE! SOUTH KOREA NOW WANTS MORE THAAD DEFENSE SYSTEMS

Published on Jul 28, 2017
In the immediate aftermath of North Korea testing an intercontinental ballistic missile, South Korean President Moon Jae-in ordered talks with the US about adding more Terminal High-Altitude Area Defence (THAAD) missile interceptor systems to South Korea.

While the move may seem like a common-sense defensive measure, it actually indicates that South Korea may be getting ready for a fight with the North.

The THAAD has a perfect record of intercepting shorter-range ballistic missiles in test conditions, but cannot handle the reentry speeds of an ICBM. Furthermore, if a missile fired from North Korea is landing in South Korea, it’s not an ICBM.

The THAAD can only block shorter-range missiles, and it does so with a powerful radar that scares the pants off the Chinese. China hates the THAAD because it fears the US could potentially use its powerful radar to negate China’s nuclear ICBM force, and thereby erode its nuclear deterrent. China routinely protests THAAD and pressures South Korea economically into giving it up.

So why would Moon take a huge political risk by increasing defences against missiles that aren’t even supposed to target his country?
