An Iranian Yono-class midget submarine conducted the missile launch. North Korea and Iran are the only two countries in the world that operate this type of submarine. In February Iran claimed to have successfully tested a submarine-launched missile. It was not immediately clear if Tuesdays test was the first time Iran had attempted to launch a missile underwater from a submarine. North Korea in 2015 conducted a successful ballistic missile test from a submarine for the first time. Lucas Tomlinson is the Pentagon and State Department producer for Fox News Channel.
