Lowest level since Cuban missile crisis! North Korea's new Hawasong 13 and 14 ICBMS are solid fueled missiles tipped with a Russian-designed "super-EMP" warheads. These devices have a small nuclear signature but emit vast amounts of Radiation, the equivalent to a 25 Metaton Blast. |

Lowest level since Cuban missile crisis! There are currently no imminent nuclear threats against the United States at this time, however there are events occurring in the world theatre which require closer monitoring. The situation in Korea continues to be a potential flashpoint. While current intel does not believe that North Korea has the capability to strike the United States with nuclear missiles, a conventional attack does not appear to be outside their ability. Chemical and biological attacks are also a possibility, though there has been little evidence that North Korea has been developing those types of weapons on any kind of large scale. Nevertheless, North Korea continues to work on intercontinental delivery systems as well as miniaturizing its nuclear warheads, so that a strike on the U.S. will ultimately be in its ability. Some analysts postulate that any nuclear attack by North Korea would not be a strike against cities, but rather a high-altitude attack which would knock out the U.S. power grid and other critical infrastructure. |

Thursday, March 28th, 2013 I wouldn't waste time on that page The DEFCON Warning System is a private enterprise which monitors world events and assesses nuclear threats against the United States by national entities. It is not affiliated with any government agency and does not represent the alert status of any military branch. The public should make their own evaluations and not rely on the DEFCON Warning System for any strategic planning. At all times, citizens are urged to learn what steps to take in the event of a nuclear attack. |
