[FBIS Translated Text] According to reports, the United
States plans to test-fire an antimissile missile [yokyok misail]
in order to achieve its nation-wide missile defense plan
[chonyok misail pangwigusang]. The U.S. newspaper THE
WASHINGTON POST, quoting remarks by a U.S. intelligence
official, reported on 11 January that the United States plans to
test-fire a nation-wide high-altitude anti-missile missile
[chonyok chogodo yokyok misail], which would become the core of
its national missile defense plan, in February. It was reported
that this test by the United States would be carried out on 14
occasions over the next two years. The national missile defense
plan, as a successor to the criminal strategy defense plan
[chollyak pangwi kusang], is designed by the United States to
gain supremacy [uwikwon] in the area of missiles following the
end of the Cold War by modernizing its missile arm.
