Operating principle

The Hyunmoo (玄武 — "Black Tortoise") family is the ROK's own ballistic + cruise portfolio. Before 2017 the ROK was bound by the US-ROK Missile Guidelines that capped range at 800 km and payload at 500 kg; in 2017 the payload cap was lifted, in 2021 the ranges were freed entirely. Hyunmoo-2A/B/C are SRBMs (range 300/500/800 km). Hyunmoo-3 is a TLAM-equivalent cruise missile with 1,500 km range. Hyunmoo-4 (revealed 2020) is an SRBM with a "monstrously large" 2,500 kg warhead — intended to demolish underground bunkers and command posts in NK. Hyunmoo-5 (2024 demo) is a hypersonic glide vehicle in development with a claimed 8-ton warhead mass as a "Frankenstein bunker buster". Not exported.
