The Missile Administration of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea conducted a test-fire of sea(underwater)-to-surface strategic cruise guided weapons on January 25.
The test was conducted as a link in the whole chain of efforts for carrying out the plan for building up the defence capability of the country, aimed at improving the effectiveness of the strategic deterrence against the potential enemies in conformity with the changing regional security environment.
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 the test-fire of the weapon system.
He was accompanied by Full General Kim Jong Sik, member of the Central Military Commission of the WPK, and Full General Jang Chang Ha, general director of the Missile Administration of the DPRK.
The launched strategic cruise missiles precisely hit the targets after travelling 1 500km-long elliptical and 8-shaped flight orbits for 7 507-7 511 seconds.
The test-fire had no negative impact on the security of the neighbouring countries.
Noting that the means of war deterrence of the armed forces of the DPRK are being perfected more thoroughly, Kim Jong Un affirmed that the DPRK will always make strenuous efforts in a responsible manner to perform its important mission and duty for defending durable and lasting peace and stability on the basis of more powerfully developed military muscle in the future.
