Chŏllima 1 → Chollima-1 – No sources that I know of refer to it as Chŏllima 1, only as Chollima-1, or in the Spanish source, Chollima 1. ✶Mitch 199811  ✶  15:26, 22 November 2023 (UTC)


 * the english KCNA page also reffers to the rocket as Chollima-1, so i think the change would be fair. source Karel Štípek (talk) 14:48, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

Fourth Launch
The north korean news agency did not name the launcher for the May 27th 2024 launch, unlike the three previous launches. They only called it a "new-type satellite carrier rocket". Furthermore, the report said that the preliminary conclusion is that it failed due to newly developped liquid oxygen-petroleum engines and that the launcher failed during its first stage ascent, while Kim Jong-Un said in a speech that "an abnormality in the first-stage engine" triggered the "self-destruct system." It follows that the first stage includes Liquid oxygen-Petroleum rocket engines. This is unlike Chollima-1 which has exclusively hypergolic propulsion on its first stage. Several South Korean analysts, experts and think tanks have taken the news seriously and do not dismiss this announcement, as such it cannot be considered exclusively as baseless propaganda. Therefore, it is possible that this launcher is either a significantly changed version of Chollima-1 or an entirely new launcher.

While there are not enough informations to warrant a new article, I believe that there is enough doubt to list this launch separately and write a paragraph describing the uncertainty about it.
