I’m curious, is it possible to estimate accuracy?
That's more or less our range estimate too -- 7,000-10,000 km.https://twitter.com/nktpnd/status/884502134552657920 …

No, not unless we knew where they were aiming.

Guess I should build a bunker then.

Why? We've had Russian and Chinese missiles aimed at us for decades. And NK realizes an attack on us will result in wiping them off the map

I know but their leaders/gov more stable

Putin scares me far more than Kim Jon Un. NK wants the deterrent to keep the US from invading. Putin wants to take down the West.

How accurate does a nuke need to be? They're able to consistently drop missiles in the Sea of Japan in roughly the same area
-
And you've hit on a key question in the old counter-force vs. counter-value debate: What's your objective? Determines the accuracy you need.

Is that w/a payload
-
Indeed. What sort of payload at those sort of ranges?

Why are the rocket science literate responding to *70* minutes on a launchpad as significant? Fuel burned = larger target range = ahhhh?
