ISIS “North Korea possesses 45 nuclear weapons… Volcano-31 is a simple fission bomb” Anchor : An American private research institute specializing in nuclear disarmament has revealed that North Korea is estimated to have 45 nuclear weapons . In addition , it was estimated that the small nuclear warhead for tactical nuclear weapons , 'Hwasan -31 ' , which was recently unveiled for the first time by North Korea, was a simple fission bomb . Reporter Park Jae-woo reports . The US Institute of Science and International Security (ISIS) published a report titled 'North Korean Nuclear Weapons Arsenal : New Estimates of its Size and Configuration' on the 10th . The report said, “The nuclear weapons that North Korea possesses, in order of destructive power, are all simple fission weapons, all composite-core fission weapons containing plutonium in highly enriched uranium , and weapons that combine these two with a hydrogen bomb. ( mix of one-state thermonuclear weapons and simple fission and composite- core ) , ” he said . Estimated number of North Korean nuclear weapons by the end of the year . It explained that the estimate was based on North Korea's production of plutonium and weapons-grade uranium (WGU) . However, the production of these core nuclear materials can be evaluated through commercial satellite observations , statements from North Korea , reports from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) , reports from intelligence agencies , field visits and interviews .

Previously, the Federation of American Scientists (FAS) also updated the Status of World Nuclear Forces on the 28th of last month, estimating the number of nuclear warheads in North Korea as more than 30 . At the 6th plenary session of the 8th Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea at the end of December last year, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un announced the ' transformative strategy for nuclear force and national defense development in 2023' and announced the policy of "exponentially increasing the number of nuclear warheads."

And if you add in weapons that can be made from uranium, there will be even more . On the other hand, North Korea recently unveiled 'Hwasan -31 ', which it claims to be a nuclear warhead for tactical nuclear weapons.

It could be , and it could be a simple fission bomb . ”
