South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol announced the establishment of the new Strategic Command (STRATCOM) to oversee military responses to North Korean nuclear threats on Tuesday, as the country publicly debuted a new “monster” ballistic missile that will be central to plans to take out DPRK leadership in the event of war.
A first-of-its-kind flyover by a U.S. B-1B strategic bomber near the end of the Armed Forces Day celebration at Seoul Airfield punctuated the show of force featuring hundreds of assets and thousands of soldiers.
