NORK Missile Blows Up Right After Launch
2017-04-16
Hat Tip: Drudge.
This is similar to another previous explosion at launch phase. That makes me think that some kind of countermeasure messed up the missile. Maybe a laser or something.
Hopefully the Chinese will honor the warranty.

According to a Defense Department official, the missile that was launched was land-based, and there was a high degree of confidence that it was not an ICBM, but an assessment was still under way.
