North Korea has conducted the first weapons test on its new “Choe Hyon-class” warship, firing cruise missiles, anti-air missiles, and artillery, state media reported on Wednesday.
Leader Kim Jong Un oversaw the launch, calling on the navy to speed up its nuclear armament to defend national maritime sovereignty.
The 5,000-tonne warship, unveiled on Saturday, is equipped with what KCNA called the “most powerful weapons.” The vessel is expected to enter service early next year.
Kim said the ship symbolises a new era for North Korea’s naval power. It is named after Choe Hyon, an anti-Japanese fighter and early revolutionary figure.
The test adds to concerns in the region over Pyongyang’s military expansion, especially its push to integrate nuclear capabilities at sea.
