A 38 North report said: “A probable launch canister support, or launch canister, appears to be present within the service tower at the missile test stand suggesting the ongoing ejection
testing of submarine launch ballistic missiles.” The ejection testing will check the ability of the launch canister to propel the ballistic missile away from the submarine before it ignites,
protecting the vessel from damage. These activities have been ongoing throughout 2017 but have intensified recently with the images from November 5 showing an increase in movement. “The
triad are the three components of a nuclear defence system: land-based missiles fired from secret silos, B-1 bombers that can drop them from the air, and submarine launched ballistic
missiles.” The article which falsely boasted of “secret” US silos and B-1 bombers that can drop nuclear warheads was quickly debunked by experts online. This could provoke a retaliation from
North Korea next time the US flies a B-1 bomber over the Korean peninsula, it is feared. Nuclear expert Vipin Narang said: “What the hell guys. Secret silos and B-1s? Don’t spread false
information through the official handle.”
