North Korea on Thursday fired two short-range missiles into the East Sea, and both flew around 600 kilometers at an altitude of around 50 km, according to an officer at the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

根據（南韓）聯合參謀本部一名軍官，北韓週四朝其東海（即日本海）發射兩枚短程飛彈，均以約50公里的高度飛行約600公里。

"Differing from a general parabolic trajectory, the Iskander shows a complicated flight pattern and what North Korea fired showed a similar one," the officer noted. It is the first time that the military authorities have officially offered such an assessment.

該軍官說，「和一般的拋物線軌跡不同，『伊斯坎德』呈現一種複雜的飛行模式，北韓的發射物顯示是一種與它類似的物體」。這是（南韓）軍事當局至今首度正式提出如此評估。

The two missiles were initially presumed to have flown 430 km and 690 km, respectively, but "further analysis conducted jointly with the United States showed that they added the so-called pull-up maneuver in the dive phase," the officer said. In the reentry phase, the Iskander pulls up to fly horizontally and then dives to attack its target with a near 90-degree falling angle, which aims to avoid interception, according to experts.

該軍官還說，這兩枚飛彈起初被推測分別飛行了430公里及690公里，但在和美國合作的進一步分析顯示，它們在（飛彈的）下降階段增加了所謂的拉升動作。根據專家，在重返大氣層階段，伊斯坎德會拉升平飛，然後以近90度的落角下降，攻擊其目標，以免被攔截。
