Production of Tactical Guided Weapons in North Korea

According to Главком: The leader of North Korea, Kim Jong Un, has instructed to increase the production of tactical guided weapons by 2.5 times. This decision was announced during his visit to a large ammunition manufacturing plant, where he emphasized the necessity of modernizing production.

Kim Jong Un noted that the rearmament of military units with new types of weapons should begin in the first half of this year. The guided weapons referred to include:

  • rockets
  • guided bombs
  • guided artillery shells

The country's leader also stressed that North Korea will continue the development of missiles over the next five years.

Kim Jong Un emphasized that 'our military industry must carefully organize production and technical modernization to meet the current situation.'

Increasing the production of tactical guided weapons in North Korea may indicate an intensification of the country's military policy amid escalating international relations. The situation in the region, particularly related to the activities of neighboring states such as South Korea and the USA, as well as the conduct of military exercises, may promote this process. Further steps by North Korea in the field of armaments could raise concerns within the international community and impact the security situation in the Asia-Pacific region.
