North Korea reportedly began construction of the Sakkabbong missile base in 1992 or 1993, and construction of the base was reportedly nearing completion in March 2001. The Chosun Ilbo reports that Sakkabbong is a base for Hwasŏng-6 [Scud-C] missiles; however, other reports only say it is a "Scud missile" base. [Note: The South Korean press quotes defense officials as calling the base location "Sakkamol (삿갓몰), North Hwanghae Province." However, current North Korean maps reveal a "Sakkabbong" (삿갓봉) in Koksan-kun, North Hwanghae Province. "Sakkamol" is probably an old name, or a name used in the local dialect. There are at least three other locations called "Sakkabbong" (삿갓봉), one in Anbyŏn-kun (安邊郡), Kangwŏn Province; one in Hŭich'on (熙川市), Chagang Province; and a third on the boundary between the cities of Kaech'ŏn (价川市) and Sunch'ŏn (順川市) in South P'yŏng'an Province.]
