Kim Jong Un Watches New Type Anti-ship Rocket Launching Drill
Pyongyang, June 15 (KCNA) -- Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army Kim Jong Un, first secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and first chairman of the National Defence Commission of the DPRK, watched a drill of firing new type anti-ship rockets.

The rockets, which were developed at the ultra-modern level, are being deployed at the naval units of the KPA to go into action.

At an observation post he received a report on the drill plan and gave an order to start the drill.

Then rockets soared into the sky in order.

Kim Jong Un watched with great attention the flight of the rockets on a display.

The highly intelligent rockets safely flew at the designated altitude, accurately detecting and hitting the "enemy" warship.

He expressed great satisfaction, saying the rockets accurately hit the target and their capability for discerning target is very high.

Saying the capabilities of the new type anti-ship rockets being deployed at the naval units of the KPA to go into action have been fully demonstrated through the drill, he noted with great pleasure that it marked another fresh milestone in bolstering up the Juche-based naval force and the KPA navy's operational capability has been remarkably increased with the drill as a momentum.

Ultra-modern strike means of Korean style have been studied and developed one after another recently to completely contain the hostile forces, he said, adding that this is a proud fruition of the devoted efforts of the scientists, technicians and munitions industrial workers in the field of defence science.

He indicated tasks to be fulfilled to further beef up the KPA navy and bring the defence science and technology of the country to a world level.
