In the United States conducted a new test of a ballistic missile

This is the second test missile of this type during the week.

As the newspaper notes, the military air forces of the United States for the second time this week launched a ballistic missile of distant radius of action on Wednesday morning, which flew more than 4000 miles (6437 km) from the base in California and landed in the Pacific ocean near the Marshall Islands.

It is noted that the Minuteman III missile was launched from Vandenberg AFB in California by a team of Montana.

It is also noted that officials said that the launch was planned a few years ago and is not associated with the growth of tension in relations with North Korea.

We will remind, on April 26 the U.S. air force had planned planned to hold a launch of an Intercontinental ballistic missile Minuteman III.
