Air Force fires 'origin strike' Taurus missiles after 7 years

The Air Force has fired a long-range air-to-ground cruise missile "Taurus" in seven years to strike the origin of the enemy's provocation.

On the 8th and 10th, the Air Force said it had successfully completed live fire on Taurus over the West Sea.

He added that the Taurus, which was fired from an F-15K fighter jet, flew about 400 kilometers and hit the target of the shooting range in the West Sea.

Taurus, a strategic weapon that can precisely strike major strategic targets of the enemy with a range of around 500 kilometers, can avoid North Korea's radar network by applying stealth technology, and can precisely strike within a 3m radius of the target even in radio disturbances.

This is the first live Taurus shooting since September 2017, shortly after North Korea's sixth nuclear test.
