Pyongyang, March 27 (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, guided the defence science research work of the Unmanned Aeronautical Technology Complex and the detective electronic warfare research group on March 25-26.

Accompanying him were Pak Jong Chon and Jo Chun Ryong, secretaries of the WPK Central Committee, Ri Pyong Chol, general advisor for the munitions policy of the WPK Central Committee, Kim Yong Hwan, president of the Academy of Defence Sciences, and other senior officials of the WPK Central Committee and defence science research institutes.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un learned about various kinds of reconnaissance and suicide attack drones, newly developed and being produced by an institute and enterprises under the Unmanned Aeronautical Technology Complex, and oversaw their performance test.

Proved at the test was the innovative performance of a new-type strategic reconnaissance drone with the detective ability capable of tracking and monitoring different strategic targets and enemy troops' activities on the ground and the sea. And fully demonstrated was the striking capability of suicide drones to be used for various tactical attack missions.

Kim Jong Un made an important evaluation of the military effectiveness and strategic value of the strategic reconnaissance drone with improved performance and the suicide attack drones with the introduction of new artificial intelligence.

He positively supported the new plans of the complex and agreed with its proposal for expanding the production capacity.

Saying that the field of unmanned equipment and artificial intelligence should be top-prioritized and developed in modernizing the armed forces, he stressed it is important to correctly shape the state long-term plan for promoting the rapid development of the work to use intelligent drones and perseveringly and dynamically propel it as a medium and long-term project, in keeping with the trend of modern warfare in which the competition for using intelligent drones as a major means of military power is being accelerated and the range of their use is steadily expanding in military activities.

As already stated, a lot of objective transformation being made under the rapid sci-tech development calls for updating a large part of our military theory, practice and education, he said, adding it is an important task facing our Party to adopt a correct line and solution proper for it.

Saying that the WPK shaped a clear line for perfectly combining unmanned weapons and equipment systems with operational plans and fundamentals of battle, regarding it as an important component of modernizing the armed forces to put weapons and equipment on an unmanned basis, he re-clarified the scientific and practical orientation and ways for successively accelerating the qualitative and quantitative and technical transformation in the development and production of unmanned weapons and equipment and putting operational ability on a highly-developed basis.

He learned about the performance of reconnaissance and intelligence gathering means and electronic jamming and attack systems newly developed by the detective electronic warfare research group and its long-term plan.

He said that our special means developed with up-to-date technology would play a big role in monitoring the potential threats and collecting vital intelligence and they would give full play to their might in enhancing our army's capability of conducting various kinds of intelligence-gathering operations and neutralizing the enemy's combat means of various missions.

Expressing great satisfaction over the fact that new electronic jamming and attack weapon systems began to be produced, he noted with high appreciation that the stages of the WPK's line of modernizing the army are being qualitatively attained, thanks to the clear brains of our younger generation defence science research group.

Saying that the Unmanned Aeronautical Technology Complex and the detective electronic warfare research group have a very important role to play in coping with the developing modern war of today characterized by confrontation between intelligent hi-tech weapon systems, he gave an important task related to the immediate duty and the long-term goals to be attained by this sector. -0-
