The United States military has detected “highly unusual and unprecedented levels” of submarine activity by North Korea, including evidence of an “ejection test.”

Those detections come in the days following North Korea’s second intercontinental ballistic missile launch last month, defence officials told CNN.

An ejection test refers to a procedure that examines a submarine’s so-called “cold-launch” systems that allow a missile to be shot out of the vessel using pressurized air. One launched into the air, the missile’s engines would then ignite as to avoid damaging the submarine with heat and flames.

(...SNIPPED)
