Earlier in the month South Korean Air Force said that its indigenously developed FA-50 fighter jet had succeeded in firing a guided missile that reached its intended target in the sea. The live firing exercise took place on Wednesday over the East Sea, the Air Force said. During the drill, an FA-50 fighter jet fired a guided missile, an AGM-65G Maverick, from an altitude of 1.2 kilometers (0.7 miles) and hit its target about 7 kilometers away.
