The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) has taken a bold step forward by launching a new, multipurpose warship—a true symbol of "Kim Jong Un style" naval innovation. Weighing 5,000 tonnes, this state-of-the-art vessel marks a cornerstone in the nation's maritime defense strategy.
Constructed in just over 400 days with locally developed technology, the ship is armed with advanced weaponry and strong pre-emptive attack capabilities, serving as a powerful deterrent. The launch ceremony at the Nampho shipbuilding dockyard was a proud moment that celebrated the hard work and ingenuity of dedicated technicians and workers.
In an energetic speech during the event, DPRK leader Kim Jong Un announced that the warship will be handed over to the navy early next year. Classified as the "Choe Hyon-class" destroyer in honor of an anti-Japanese revolutionary fighter, this launch signals the beginning of a new era in naval fleet building.
The unveiling comes at a time when the security environment is considered very serious, with strategic assets being regularly deployed on the Korean Peninsula. For young military tech enthusiasts and global defense followers, this development is as exciting as a blockbuster release—delivering a bold leap into futuristic naval capabilities! ⚓🚢
