North Korea has revealed its first nuclear-powered submarine under construction, a move that could enhance its long-range strike capabilities.
North Korea has unveiled its first nuclear-powered submarine under construction, with state media releasing photos following an inspection by leader Kim Jong Un.
Based on the images, experts estimate the vessel to be a 6,000- or 7,000-ton-class submarine capable of carrying about 10 missiles.
State media described it as a “nuclear-powered strategic guided missile submarine,” a term experts interpret as indicating its ability to carry nuclear-capable weapons.
Currently, North Korea operates a fleet of aging Soviet-era, diesel-powered submarines, which must resurface frequently to recharge their batteries. A nuclear-powered submarine, capable of traveling long distances without resurfacing, would significantly improve the country’s ability to approach distant targets undetected and launch nuclear strikes.
North Korea has been pursuing the development of a nuclear-powered submarine since Kim designated it a top military priority during a meeting in 2021.
