Top DPRK Leader Watches Demonstration Firing Of Tactical Guided Weapon

PYONGYANG, Mar 22 (NNN-KCNA) – Kim Jong Un, top leader of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), observed the demonstration firing of tactical guided weapon, on Saturday.

The firing was aimed at re-confirming and showing Korean People’s Army commanding officers, the tactical characters and power of a new weapon system, to be delivered to the army units, the report said.

After Kim gave an order, the projectiles were fired “with roaring sound and dazzling flare to precisely hit a target islet,” the report said.

The firing clearly proved “the characters of different flight trajectories and falling angles, accuracy of guided shells and their power,” it said.

The report did not specify what kind of weapon was tested, but the South Korean military said, the test-fired two projectiles were believed to be short-range ballistic missiles.

Kim said, the new weapon systems, which the DPRK recently developed, and the tactical and strategic weapon systems, in the development stage, will make decisive contributions to the realisation of the Workers’ Party of Korea’s strategic plan, to make a radical change in the defence strategy.

“We must further build up the striking capability, which can wipe any enemy out of our territory, if it dares to launch a military action against us, and this is just the aim of building our defence capability,” he added.

It is the third time the DPRK test-fired weapons in Mar, with the last two on Mar 2 and 9.– NNN-KCNA
