Taurus launches were carried out on October 8 and 10 from F-15K fighters.

According to the South Korean Air Force, the missiles flew 400 kilometers and successfully hit predetermined targets in the Yellow Sea.

South Korea last launched a Taurus in 2017 in response to the sixth North Korea's nuclear test.

It is noted that if this cruise missile, whose flight speed reaches 1,163 km/h, is launched from an area near Seoul, it is capable of hitting any important facilities throughout North Korea within 15 minutes with an accuracy of 3 meters.
