A missile unit in charge of an important firing task in the central front conducted a demonstration education firing drill aimed at letting its sub-units get familiar with procedures and processes for carrying out an important firing task on March 27.
The drill was guided by the General Missile Bureau and watched by the commanding officers and combatants of all sub-units under the unit.
The education company under the unit was involved in the drill, and conducted an education demonstration firing by a nuclear air explosion striking mode with two ground-to-ground tactical ballistic missiles.
In the drill for firing preparations, there were an examination of the normal operation of the procedures for authenticating the nuclear attack order and the launch approval system and a demonstration education for standard combat action process and handling of equipment for making nuclear assault on the pointed target according to the set procedures and regulations of receiving an order for nuclear attack.
The tactical ballistic missiles were loaded with warheads for trial simulating nuclear warheads.
The education company launched a virtual nuclear attack from Ryokpho District, Pyongyang, aiming at a target islet off Kim Chaek City, North Hamgyong Province, and blasted the warheads 500 metres above the target.
The commander of the unit said that its mission is clear and they know well about what they should do in contingency, affirming that if they fight, they will surely annihilate the enemy.
All the officers and men of the unit made a firm pledge to uphold the military and strategic plan of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea with the fighting efficiency of a-match-for-a-hundred by increasing the capability for a real war in every way with fiercer and more intensive training.
