O Pentágono anunciou nesta quarta-feira que os EUA estão mandando um sistema de defesa antimísseis para a ilha de Guam, um dos territórios americanos no oceano Pacífico, nas próximas semanas.
O exército da Coreia do Norte afirmou estar pronto para fazer um ataque nuclear contra os EUA, segundo um comunicado divulgado pela agência estatal KCNA.
O Departamento da Defesa vai enviar um sistema conhecido como Defesa
Aérea Terminal de Alta Altitude (THAAD, na sigla em inglês), que inclui
um lançador montado em caminhão, interceptadores de mísseis, um radar de
rastreamento AN/TPY-2 e um sistema integrado de controle de fogo.

THAAD Ballistic Missile Defense System

North Korea Threat! The United States is sending a THAAD Ballistic
Missile Defense System to Guam. The Pentagon said on Wednesday it was
sending an advanced ballistic missile defense system to Guam in the
coming weeks, describing the move as a precaution against North Korea's
regional ballistic missile threat. The Defense Department is deploying a
Terminal High Altitude Area Defense System (THAAD), which includes a
truck-mounted launcher, interceptor missiles, a AN/TPY-2 tracking radar
and an integrated fire control system. "The United States remains
vigilant in the face of North Korean provocations and stands ready to
defend U.S. territory, our allies, and our national interests," a
Pentagon spokeswoman said. U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel cited a
"real and clear" danger from North Korea. North Korea has singled out
U.S. military bases in Guam, a U.S. territory in the Pacific, and Hawaii
among its potential targets in threats in recent weeks that have put
the Korean peninsula on edge and triggered a change in the U.S. defense
posture and missile defense planning. "Some of the actions they've taken
over the last few weeks, present a real and clear danger," Hagel told
an audience at the National Defense University in Washington. He said
those actions had threatened the interests of South Korea and Japan, but
he also cited their direct threats against Guam, Hawaii and West Coast
of the United States. Department of Defense South Korea Act of War

The Missile Defense Agency is hailing flight test 10 of its Terminal
High-Altitude Area Defense (Thaad) system in March as a success. This
was the first salvo test of the system; two interceptors were launched
against one short-range target (boosted from a barge). The results, on
the video, show interceptor one colliding with the warhead target while
the second interceptor -- launched 12 sec. later -- adjusts to the
target scene of debris and picks out a large piece as its target.
