Cool picture - it must have been quite impressive. What’s a “space launch” vehicle? Is it just a redundant word for “space vehicle”?

I think “vehicle” just means “rocket” in this instance. Here is another article with more context and details (and another cool picture!)

It’s the word “launch” I’m wondering about. Why isn’t vehicle enough to characterize it?

I wonder how long it will be before the saber rattling starts coming from North Korea?

Some vehicles operate in space - the space shuttle orbiter, for instance - but don't have the very powerful rocket stages to launch from ground to orbit on their own.
