The mole sits down for lunch with President of a North Korean arms factory in a basement restaurant near Pyongyang - and is allegedly offered various types of weapons systems including ballistic missiles - 5 SCUDs for $14mil

Some more images - seemingly of North Korean arms marketing material - SAM system SA-16M, some kind of radar, 122mm guided rocket (BM-21?) and warhead.
Phoenix 4M "Portable Anti-Tank Laser Beam Guided Missile" 🤔
