North Korea conducted the second exercise in recent days with a simulated airborne nuclear explosion

North Korea has conducted an airborne nuclear explosion exercise, according to the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA). Pyongyang continues to improve its weapons.

On Monday, March 27, the armed forces of the DPRK simulated an air nuclear explosion using ballistic missiles. The launch was made from the outskirts of Pyongyang in an easterly direction, the conditional target was at an altitude of 500 meters above the sea surface in the province of Hamgyong Pukto.

This is the second exercise of its kind conducted in recent days. On March 18-19, the DPRK army also tested missiles, and at the same time tested a simulated "nuclear" warhead, carrying out its controlled air explosion, causing alarm from South Korea and Japan.

The worries of Seoul and Tokyo did not end there, Pyongyang conducted the second successful test of the sea drone "Heil-1", capable of carrying a nuclear charge. Testing of "strategic underwater weapons" took place from March 25 to 27, the drone was launched in the Wonsan Bay and independently arrived at the desired point off the coast of Hwade County, Hamgyongbuk-do Province, covering about 600 km in 41 hours and 27 minutes.

The drone also simulated a nuclear explosion, detonating a dummy nuclear weapon to create a "super powerful radioactive tsunami."

As stressed at the National Defense Academy of the DPRK, during the tests, the naval drone proved its reliability and ability to deliver a nuclear charge to the desired point.

Sev. Korea is slowly but surely building up its technological potential. Regardless of anything or anyone.
I won’t be surprised if we start buying electronics from them and even lithographs.

The tests of the DPRK underwater drone suggest that the Koreans very well considered the leak of the photo of our Poseidon by Gerasimov. And they made Poseidon at minimum wages.

To consider a photo of the device from the outside is not enough. Even if they peeped how it looks from the outside, then inside they had to develop everything themselves. And this already means a lot if they could make their own analogue. I don’t think that our drawing of the insides and technical documentation were presented to them ...

I remember last summer the UN opposed the statements of Kim Jong-un about his readiness to use nuclear weapons:
"We are against any rhetoric regarding the use of such lethal weapons, and continue to call for the resumption of negotiations for the peaceful denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula".

Just like in a Western joke:
US asks Kim Jong-un to stop nuclear testing
and move on to dialogue, as Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein did.

Eun does everything right.

And where are Gaddafi and Hussein now??? As I understand it, comrade. Eun clearly does not want to repeat their fate.

North Korea conducted exercises with simulated air nuclear explosion

Another warning for sworn "friends" is not superfluous.

10 - 15 knots, the speed of the drone is too low, but the range is impressive. And who supplies the batteries to Ynu, do they disassemble the Teslas?

[Nexcom]

China supplies them with batteries. As well as some electronics.

[I dare to_notice_]

Although North Korea is a "girl" (like Russia), her balls are cooler than those of China - a "boy".
I would like to read the same news about us.

We must do this. Near the coast of Great Britain with a message that if at least one projectile, a missile with a depleted uranium core crosses the border of Ukraine, an air detonation of nuclear weapons will be immediately carried out.
