'''Hyunmoo''' ({{Korean|hangul=현무|hanja=玄武}}) is a series of South Korean [[Ballistic missile|ballistic]] and [[Cruise missile|cruise]] missiles developed by the [[Agency for Defense Development]] (ADD) and manufactured by [[Hanwha Group|Hanwha]] and [[LIG Nex1]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.add.re.kr/board?menuId=MENU02825|title=Hyunmoo|publisher=[[Agency for Defense Development]]|date=|archiveurl=https://archive.today/20241004143621/https://www.add.re.kr/board?menuId=MENU02825|archivedate=4 October 2024|accessdate=4 October 2024|author1=}}</ref>
The Hyunmoo-1 was a variant of the '''NHK-1 Baekgom''' ('''Nike Hercules Korea-1 White Bear'''; {{Korean |hangul=NHK-1 백곰}}) missile whose [[propulsion]] engine was modified based on the [[technology transfer]] of the American [[Nike Hercules]] and has been deployed to the [[Republic of Korea Armed Forces|ROK Armed Forces]] from 1987. Later, Hyunmoo-1 was retired in 2018 due to the further development of the Hyunmoo-2 with a longer range.<ref name="War Memorial of Korea - Hyunmoo-1">{{cite web|url=https://archives.warmemo.or.kr:8443/pss/media/pssMediaDetail.do?MID=UM00015&archvNttNo=5896|title=현무-1 미사일|publisher=[[War Memorial of Korea]]|date=2020|archiveurl=https://archive.today/20241004180119/https://archives.warmemo.or.kr:8443/pss/media/pssMediaDetail.do?MID=UM00015&archvNttNo=5896|archivedate=4 October 2024|accessdate=4 October 2024|author1=}}</ref><ref name="DAPA 2017-09-07">{{cite web|url=https://blog.naver.com/dapapr/221091272855|title=[팔방미인 7기] '똑똑한 무기'로 국가를 수호한다!

Line 38 ⟶ 106:
The Hyunmoo system, which means "guardian angel of the northern skies" in Korean, launches a missile from a mobile launcher which is fire-controlled from the missile battery's command and control vehicle. The Hyunmoo-1 missile, which is {{convert|12|m|abbr=on}} long and weighing {{convert|5|tonne|lb|abbr=on}}, is propelled by a two-stage solid rocket motor. It features an independent [[inertial guidance]] and control system which means it can reach any target in any weather conditions without further commands after launch.
=== U.S. government control over missile development programs ===
{{main|South Korea Ballistic Missile Range Guidelines}}
In 1990 the US withheld approval on a request by South Korea to start selling the Hyunmoo-1 abroad. The US only granted export approval after South Korea provided technical information on its Hyunmoo system, and agreed to not develop rockets with ranges of more than {{convert|180|km|abbr=on}}. South Korea was permitted to produce a limited number of Hyunmoo missiles under US inspection until production ended.
