US EditionNorth Korea conducts first test firing of its new warship's weapons system
- North Korea conducted first test-firings of weapons from its new 5,000-ton destroyer Choe Hyon earlier this week at an undisclosed location.
- The tests followed last week's official launch of the multipurpose destroyer at the Nampho shipyard, supervised by leader Kim Jong Un.
- The trials featured tests of high-speed cruise missiles, strategic ballistic weapons, anti-aircraft missiles, 127mm automatic naval guns, electronic jamming devices, and smoke screen systems.
- Kim Jong Un praised the ship's integration of "powerful offensive weapons" with conventional defenses and called for accelerating the nuclear armament of the navy.
- North Korea said the destroyer will deploy early next year, which could bolster its naval attack capabilities amid rising regional tensions and expanded Russia-North Korea military ties.
