		</div><p>The US military is planning a missile defence test next week which for the first time will target an intercontinental-range missile.</p>
<p>The Pentagon plan is to closely simulate a North Korean intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) aimed at the US homeland, with the test scheduled for next Tuesday.</p>
<p>The US interceptor has a spotty track record, having succeeded in nine of 17 attempts since 1999 and only one in the last four.</p>
<p>The most recent test, in June 2014, was successful.</p>
<p>North Korea is now the focus of US missile defence efforts after the country vowed to create a nuclear-armed missile capable of reaching American territory.</p>
<p>It has yet to test an ICBM.</p>
