Hyunmoo-2D missile is a two-stage, solid-fuel rocket, single-warhead anti-ship ballistic missile (ASBM) developed by Joseon's Agency for Defense Development. It was developed based on the Hyunmoo-2, and was developed in 2014, but the first deployment took place in 2020.
Unlike other ASBMs, the Hyunmoo-2D focuses on active anti-ship missions and securing maritime control, not A2/AD missions. The K409 transporter erector launcher, a vehicle that carries missiles, is designed to operate off-road and has high maneuverability. Based on the vehicle's capabilities, the Hyunmu-2D is transported via cargo aircraft, deployed at an island or land-based bridgehead base near the coast of or near the enemy's control, and then focused on its mission to launch attacks on enemy fleets.
