North Korea’s state-run television KRT aired on Friday its leader Kim Jong-un supervising the apparent launch of a new intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) on Thursday in heavily-edited footage.
Wearing a black leather jacket and aviator shades, Kim Jong-un was the apparent star of the video which featured flashy effects, a climactic soundtrack and edits to the movie “Top Gun.”
Thursday’s launch would be the first full ICBM test by nuclear-armed North Korea since 2017.
However, according to U.S. and South Korean intelligence, North Korea likely faked the launch. The missile launched last week was likely a Hwasong-15 — an ICBM that Pyongyang already tested in 2017 — according to South Korean and U.S. intelligence.
