NK has a working ICBM with a nuclear warhead today. It's already done. The time to stop it was back in the 90s.

- rich_sasha 4y agoDo we know they can make warheads small enough to fit on ICBMs? I always understood that is quite difficult. AFAICT we know they have blown up stationary nukes and shot out inert ballistic missiles.
- bismuthcrystal 4y agoLets speculate a little bit for argument sake. Take this with a grain of salt because I am not a specialist, just a information hoarder. Lets put miniaturization aside and focus on another aspects, which i judge will be more critical. The warhead must survive mechanical stress of launch and reentry, and thermal stress at reentry. The question is: can it be designed only with computers and public knowledge? They could build small hypersonic wind tunnel to collect data and simulate the rest.
