North Korea has tested exploding drones designed to crash into targets, and its leader, Kim Jong Un, has called for accelerating mass production of these weapons. The latest military demonstration came as the United States, South Korea, and Japan engaged in combined military exercises involving advanced fighter jets and a US aircraft carrier in international waters.
North Korea’s official Korean Central News Agency published photos of Kim talking with officials near at least two different types of unmanned aerial vehicles, including those with X-shaped tails and wings that look similar to the ones the country disclosed in August.
The drones flew various routes and accurately struck targets, with images showing what appeared to be a BMW sedan being destroyed and old models of tanks being blown up. Kim expressed satisfaction with the weapons’ development process and stressed the need to build a serial production system as early as possible and go into full-scale mass production. He also paraphrased Kim as saying drones were easy to make at low cost for a range of military activities.
