Comparing North Korea's achievements in the field of missiles with the programs of other countries, one gets the impression that North Korea is a nation of rocket scientists. The recent glorious successes appear like a deja vu of the early days of North Korea's missile program in the 1980s and 1990s, when the country managed to present a full missile program out of the blue. But a close look from an engineer's perspective reveals some discrepancies in the common narrative, thus allowing for some surprising insights into the current situation of North Korea's missile threat.
