The test follows a series of weapons launches, including one this week that the nuclear-armed nation claims was a hypersonic gliding missile, a potential game-changer as it can fly five times the speed of sound.
North Korea has test-fired a "newly developed" anti-aircraft missile, the latest in a string of recent weapons test launches, state media said Friday.
"The DPRK test-fired an anti-aircraft missile newly developed by it on September 30," the Korean Central News Agency reported, using the acronym for the country's official name.
"The remarkable combat performance" of the missile "has been verified, with the introduction of new key technologies," KCNA added.
