S.Korea develops its longest range missile



SEOUL (Reuters) -



South Korea <http://search.news.yahoo.com/search/news/?p=South+Korea> 
has developed and hopes to deploy soon a new cruise missile that is
capable of hitting almost all of



North Korea <http://search.news.yahoo.com/search/news/?p=North+Korea> ,
a defense ministry official said on Thursday.



North Korea, which has one of the biggest missile arsenals in Asia,
defied international warnings and test-fired seven missiles in July,
including a long-range ballistic missile that fizzled after take-off but
one day might be able to hit parts of U.S. territory.

The new South Korean cruise missile, with a range of 500 km (310 miles),
will be the longest-range missile in its arsenal and is capable of
hitting all of North Korea's ballistic missile bases, the official said
on condition of anonymity.

Cruise missiles fly much like airplanes, often at low altitudes in order
to avoid detection by radar.

Three South Korean submarines that will take to the sea next year will
be fitted with launchers for the missile, dubbed Cheon Ryong, which can
be translated as sky dragon, the official said.
