The respected Kim Jong Un, General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea, President of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of the DPRK, watched the test-firing of a new-type tactical guided weapon.

He was accompanied by Kim Jong Sik, Deputy Department Director of the Central Committee of the WPK.

The test-firing was seen by commanding personnel of the Ministry of National Defence of the DPRK and the commanders of the large combined units of the Korean People's Army.

The new-type tactical guided weapon system developed under the special concern of the Party Central Committee is of great significance in radically increasing the fire striking power of the long-range artillery units on the front and strengthening the effectiveness of tactical nuclear operation of the DPRK and diversification of the firepower task.

The test-firing proved successful.

Kim Jong Un highly estimated the successes made one after another by the defence science research institutions in attaining the pivotal goals for war deterrent advanced at the Eighth Congress of the WPK and warmly congratulated them in the name of the Party Central Committee.

Clarifying the future plan of the Party Central Committee for increasing the defence capabilities, he gave important instructions on further strengthening the defence capacity and nuclear combat forces of the country.
