Pyongyang has claimed a successful test of a “new-type guided weapon,” allegedly designed to increase the efficiency of its “tactical nukes.” North Korean leader Kim Jong-un was present to observe the launch, conducted at an undisclosed time and location.
Several undated images published by KCNA state news agency on Sunday show the firing of at least one rocket from a mobile launch platform, as well as a smiling Kim, surrounded by his generals.
“The new-type tactical guided weapon… is of great significance in drastically improving the firepower of the frontline long-range artillery units and enhancing the efficiency in the operation of tactical nukes of the DPRK and diversification of their firepower missions,” the KCNA said.
Pyongyang has not revealed any technical details of the missile, but the test launch is said to be “successful.” One of the released photos showed dust and smoke rising from a small island.
