The US Air Force (USAF) test-launched an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) from the US Air Force North Vandenberg base, just days after North Korea reportedly fired an ICBM into the Sea of Japan.
North Korea tested a long-range projectile last Friday, which the US and South Korean militaries have since assessed to be an ICBM. The missile was launched from an area in Mupyong-ni. It reportedly flew 1,000km (621 miles) before landeding in the Sea of Japan.
