What stopped Japan from intercepting North Korean missile? grin grin grin grin grin

The altitude and speed of Hwasong-12 would have made it very difficult to destroy missile in flight, while failure would have been embarrassing for Japan and US encouraging to North Korea.

The question now might be how Shinzo Abe, the Japanese prime minister, prepares to meet the next missile that is fired from North Korea - the likelihood of which increased sharply on Wednesday after state media reported that Kim Jong Un has defiantly ordered more missile tests landing in the Pacific Ocean.

"The Japanese government is talking about equipping the military to carry out pre-emptive attacks on sites in foreign countries if a direct threat to Japan is identified, although it must be remembered that any such attack on North Korea is likely to be met with an artillery barrage on Seoul," Nagy said.

Estimates have suggested that an artillery strike on the South Korean capital could kill one million people in one minute and another thousands in Japan

"I expect Japan to work with the US, South Korea and possibly with China to apply more pressure on Pyongyang to squeeze their finances and cut off supplies of the technology and components that they need to make these missiles," he said.

Japan has no military. Everybody knows that.
Her military is America's military. So in other words, japan is untouchable. cheesy
But be careful what you ask for. Japan has the tech and the wealth to become a superpower.
