  Analysis North Korea secretly building missile launchers at obscure factory near capitalInvestigation finds production of weapons targeting South since last year, ahead of recent mass deployment to frontlines  North Korea appears to have recently started using a decades-old factory near the capital to build launch vehicles for nuclear missiles, according to exclusive analysis of satellite imagery, underscoring Kim Jong Un’s push to rapidly increase production of capabilities that target the South. The facility just outside Pyongyang has been producing the transporter erector launchers (TELs) since at least Nov. 2023, and their size and shape suggest that they are for Hwasong-11D short-range ballistic missiles (SRBM), according to a joint NK Pro investigation with the New Tools Team at the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation at © Korea Risk Group.
