The expert said that South Korea could arm itself with nuclear missiles in six months

So Gyun-yeol, a professor at the Department of Nuclear Engineering at Seoul University, said that South Korea is technically capable of deploying medium-range ballistic missiles that will be equipped with a nuclear warhead in six months from a technical point of view.

At the same time, he specified that within a year, South Korea would be able to create a lighter version of these missiles, which would have various tactical applications.

“South Korea could independently manufacture ballistic missiles with a range of up to 1,500 kilometers in six months,” he said.
