Media: Kim Jong Un supervised drills with ‘super-large’ launchers
On March 18th, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un supervised firing drills by artillery units in the western region using ‘newly equipped super-large’ multiple rocket launchers, Reuters reports
The drills took place a day after South Korea and Japan reported North Korea's launch of several short-range ballistic missiles into the sea, the first such missile test in the last two months.
“On March 18th, Kim Jong Un guided the drills aimed at testing the ‘real war capabilities’ of 600 millimetre multiple rocket launchers and improving the operators' combat morale and readiness posture,” the publication reads.
The drills also included simulating an air explosion of a shell of the super-large multiple rocket launcher at a preset altitude above the target.
