The US Air Force tested an intercontinental ballistic missile on Wednesday just days after North Korea conducted its own ICBM test, the Air Force Global Strike Command said in a news release.
The missile’s re-entry vehicle traveled approximately 4,200 miles to the Kwajalein Atoll in the Marshall Islands, according to the release.
The ICBM was launched by a team from the 90th Missile Wing at F. E. Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming at 2: 10 a.m. PST from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California.
