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 WPK Central Committee.
The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un got firsthand information on the drones under development by the Drone Institute.
The drones to be used within different striking ranges are to perform a mission to attack any enemy targets on the ground and in the sea.
The drones of various types 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, adding 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 a nuclear torpedo but also various types of unmanned underwater suicide attack craft 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 specified the tasks and ways to this end.
Expressing satisfaction over the tactical and technological specifications and data of the newly-developed drones, he stressed the need to more intensively conduct tests for their combat application and equip the units of the Korean People's Army with them as early as possible.
Officials, scientists and researchers of the Drone Institute under the Academy of Defence Sciences were filled with surging emotion, looking up at him who personally oversaw the test on the spot and indicated the path to be followed by them in enhancing the combat efficiency of drones and developing the 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 military capabilities for self-defence.
