Britain's Trident nuclear deterrent missile test fails for second time

英 핵잠수함 '트라이던트 II' 탄도미사일 시험발사 두 번째 실패 We begin today in the United Kingdom, where the country's nuclear deterrent, a Trident missile launched from a submarine, reportedly misfired during a test last month. The Sun newspaper reported on Wednesday that the failed missile crashed into the ocean close to the launch site off the coast of Florida. This is the second time in a row that a test firing of a Trident missile from a Royal Navy submarine has failed. Defence Secretary Grant Shapps who oversaw HMS Vanguard's launch test, said that “On this occasion, an anomaly did occur“, but “there are no implications for the reliability of the wider Trident missile systems and stockpiles.“ The previous test in 2016 also failed, with the missile veering off course. British tests of Trident missiles are rare, partially due to the cost, as each missile costs around 20 million U.S. dollars. #British_Trident #Trident_missile #United_Kingdom #UK #missile_launch #Grant_Shapps #영국_핵잠수함 #트라이던트_미사일 #Arirang_News #아리랑뉴스 📣 Facebook : 📣 Twitter : 📣 Homepage : 2024-02-22, 09:00 (KST)
