Question is what kind of submarine is it?  Is it one that must  surface to 
recharge batteries or one that can proceed underwater for days  like a 
modern nuclear submarine.  I honestly do not think that they  have nukes.   


They certainly could threaten nearby countries like Japan or even China  
(should they not be friends any more), but I doubt that they could even  
threaten Hawaii.


I also suspect that we have a couple of subs off their coast just in  case. 
  The best submarine hunter-killer is a nuclear attack  submarine.

Roger,
 
    The news report showed a missile being launched  from a submerged 
submarine.  (North
 Korean variety).

Joe,


The North Koreans do not have any nuclear submarines and do not  have the 
capability of putting one of their diesel boats undetected into  NY Harbor.  
We do not have the sub hunting capabilities we had  during the Cold War, but 
we still have a considerable capability, just  no longer have the shore 
based stations with acoustic arrays or towed  acoustic arrays in the oceans.

Dan,

The missiles don't have to be intercontinental if   the N. Korean
submarine is in New York City's  harbor....

All  they  said was "Ballistic Missiles" not  "Intercontinental".
