This was reported on October 11 by the Yonhap news agency. According to official representatives of the Air Force, the rocket tests were conducted using the F-15K fighter. As a result, Taurus flew 400 kilometers and struck pre -planned goals in the yellow sea. It was noted that preliminary such exercises were conducted in 2017 after the sixth nuclear test of North Korea, and the current trials again demonstrate Seoul's readiness for threats.
The Taurus rocket is characterized by high speed and accuracy. It is capable of developing a maximum speed of 1 163 km/h, which allows it to hit important goals in North Korea within only 15 minutes after launching from the Seoul area. Taurus is equipped with stealth technology, which makes it invisible to radars and can strike up to 3 meters from the intended purpose.
This rocket can also punch fortified concrete structures, which makes it an effective remedy against underground bunkers, often used by North Korea. The characteristics of the rocket: earlier it was reported that since 2026 in Germany for the first time since the Cold War, American winged missiles Tomahawk and anti-aircraft missiles SM-6 will be placed. Bild observers noted that the range of American winged missiles is up to 2500 km - that is, they can even reach Moscow in theory.
