Japanese Technology and Instruments Believed to be Used by North Korea in Missile Development
Japan's Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper reports how North Korea acquired the controlled technology and products from Japan that was likely used in developing the missile launched on Sunday.
The article notes that at "a U.S. Senate hearing in May 2003, an engineer who had defected from North Korea testified that about 90 percent of the parts used for one type of North Korean missile originated in Japan, adding the components were brought into the country by a ferry every two to three weeks."
