A N.Korean attack could be intercepted by the F-35
Posted by Arms Control Center in MISSILES, tags: ballistic missiles, F-35, Korea, missiles, North Korea, USThe most expensive weapon system in history, named F-35 could possibly shoot down intercontinental ballistic missiles. The ballistic missiles that N.Korea has been working on in order to reach the US with a nuclear warhead are a huge threat because they reenter the atmosphere at over a dozen times the speed of sound. The F-35 is ideal for breaking into N. Korea’s protected airspace because of its stealth that covers all aspects. It is already able to use the air-to-air missile in question and it has a sensor fusion that renders it the best option for this job.
