Pyongyang, August 26 (KCNA) -- Kim Jong Un , general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, oversaw a performance test of various drones organized by the Drone Institute of the Academy of Defence Sciences on August 24.
He was accompanied by Jo Yong Won, Ri Pyong Chol, Pak Jong Chon and other senior officials of the C.C., WPK.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un got firsthand information on the drones under development at the Drone Institute.
The mission of the drones to be used within different striking ranges is to attack any enemy targets on the ground and in the sea.
The drones of various types all correctly identified and destroyed the designated targets after flying along different preset routes.
Developing different types of drones and steadily increasing their combat performance take an important share in preparing for a war in view of the trend of world military science and combat experience on battlefields, Kim Jong Un said that it is necessary to develop and produce more suicide drones of various types to be used in tactical infantry and special operation units, as well as strategic reconnaissance and multi-purpose attack drones.
Calling for constantly developing not only underwater strategic weapon systems like nuclear torpedo but also various types of underwater suicide attack drones in conformity with the characteristics of our country as a maritime nation, and opting for proactively introducing artificial intelligence technology into the development of drones, he set forth detailed tasks and ways for doing so.
Expressing satisfaction over the tactical and technical features and data of the newly-developed drones, he stressed the need to more intensively conduct tests for their combat application and equip People's Army units with them as early as possible.
Officials, scientists and researchers of the Drone Institute of the Academy of Defence Sciences hardly repressed their surging emotion, looking up to him who personally guided the test on the spot and indicated the path to be followed by them in enhancing the combat efficiency of drones and developing drone industry, and hardened their determination to thoroughly carry out the important tasks set forth by him and thus make a positive contribution to bolstering up the country's self-defensive military capabilities. -0-
