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 a test-fire of new-type anti-aircraft missiles.
The Missile Administration of the DPRK conducted a test-fire of new-type high-altitude long-range anti-aircraft missiles under development in the East Sea of Korea on December 24.
This is the first test-fire for assessing the tactical and technical features of the high-altitude long-range anti-aircraft missile system in development.
The launched missiles accurately hit the mock targets at a high altitude 200 kilometres away.
The test-fire is part of the routine activities of the Missile Administration and its affiliated anti-aircraft weapon system research institutes for the rapid technological development of national air defence means.
Comrade Kim Jong Un extended congratulations on the successful test-fire.
