China on Thursday, June 16, test-fired a new long-range ballistic missile from a nuclear submarine in the Pacific Ocean. The missile traveled from a submarine located near the city of Qingdao which is located in the Shandong Peninsula, some several thousand kilometers toward a Chinese desert. Japanese government sources were quoted as saying that the missile tested was the Ju Lang 2 (JL-2), a sea-launched modified version of the Dong Feng 31 ICBM with a range of roughly 8,000 kilometers. China tested another sea launched ballistic missile in 2001.

CAN ANY PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION ABOUT IT
