a start, let's expand
The Terminal High Altitude Area Defense system, or '''THAAD''', is the latest version of the missile-defense system used by the [[United States]]. On May 2, 2017, officials confirmed that it has been deployed in [[South Korea]] to defend against [[communist]] [[North Korea]].

THAAD shoots down long-range missiles in mid-flight or as they near their target. It does not intercept them at the launch phase, and is ineffective against intermediate-range missiles of the kind that North Korea has been testing in late 2016 and early 2017.<ref>www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/10/15/north-korea-s-scary-new-nuke-missiles</ref>
