North Korea has halted missile flight tests, which haven’t taken place in nearly a year, but American intelligence officials say production has continued for nuclear material, new weapons and missiles that can be launched from secret bases.
The Pentagon had hoped to track those mobile missiles with smaller, inexpensive satellites, but that early warning system — begun by the Obama administration — has stalled through a series of budget and bureaucratic disputes under the Trump administration.
