Seoul, South Korea (AP) – North Korea For the first time, she discovered a submarine with a nuclear construction drive, a weapon system that can represent a large security threat to South Korea and the USA
State media on Saturday posted photos depicting what is called “Strategic Rocket Submarine with nuclear drive” since he reported the leader Kim Jong Un’s Visit to larger shipyards where warships are being built.
The Korean Central News Agency, or KCNA, did not give details about the submarine, but said Kim was familiar with his construction.

Trump should not repeat his mistake in Kim Jong Una with Iran, warns the security expert
Navy naval vessels seem to be 6,000 tonnes or 7,000 tonnes of class that can carry about 10 missiles, Moon Keun-Sik said, and South Korean A submarine expert he teaches at Hanyang University in Seoul. He said the use of the term “strategically guided missile” means that it will carry weapons that can be adhered to nuclear.
“It would be absolutely threatening us and now,” Moon said.
The nuclear drive submarine was among the long census of the sophisticated weapon, which Kim vowed to be introduced during a major political conference 2021 to cope with what he called the escalation of military threats under the guidance of the US. Other weapons were a solid fuel of intercontinental ballistic rockets, hypersonic weapons, spy satellites and multi -bar rockets. North Korea has since performed test activities to gain them.
North Korea, which has gained a greater ability to shoot rockets from groundwater, is a worrying development because it is difficult for its rivals to detect such launch in advance.
Questions about how North Korea, a strongly sanctioned and impoverished country, could obtain resources and technology to build submarines with nuclear drive.
Moon, a submarine expert, said North Korea may have received Russian technological assistance to build a nuclear reactor that will be used in the submarine in exchange for a conventional weapon and torso to support Russian war effort against Ukraine.

He also said that North Korea could start a submarine in one or two years to test its ability before actual distribution.
North Korea has about 70-90 diesel submarines in one of the world’s largest fleets. However, mostly old ones who can only launch torpedoes and mines, not rockets.
In 2023, North Korea said she launched what she called her first “nuclear seizure tactical submarine”, but foreign experts doubted the North announcement and speculated that it was probably a submarine with a diesel drive published in 2019. Moon said there was no confirmation that it was distributed.
North Korea has spent a series of underwater ballistic missile tests since 2016, but all launchs were made from the same 2,000 tonne submarine, which has one launch tube. Many experts call it a test platform, not an operational submarine in the active service.

In recent days, North Korea has chosen her fiery rhetoric against the USA South Korea on the eve of their upcoming annual military exercises that started on Monday.
During her visit to the shipyards, Kim said that North Korea wants to modernize the water surface and underwater warships at the same time. He emphasized the need to “incomparably prevail the warships to meet their mission” to contain “diplomacy of weapons for weapons of enemy forces weapons,” KCNa reported on Saturday.
