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 on August 27 a test-fire of the 240mm-calibre MRLS under production at defence industrial enterprises under the Second Economy Commission.

The MRLS, technically updated in its manoeuvrability and concentrated firing capability, proved to be advantageous in all indices, including a newly-applied guided system, controllability and destructive power.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un set forth an important policy to be maintained in producing new artillery pieces and equipping army units with them as the replacement of older ones.

He was accompanied by Pak Jong Chon, vice-chairman of the Central Military Commission of the WPK and secretary of the Central Committee of the WPK, Jo Chun Ryong, secretary of the Central Committee of the WPK, Ri Yong Gil, chief of the General Staff of the Korean People’s Army, Kim Jong Sik, first deputy department director of the Central Committee of the WPK, the commanders of KPA large combined units, and Kim Yong Hwan, president of the Academy of Defence Sciences.
