Translation result.Test-launch report: Kim Jong Un observed; suggests capability to strike South Korea\u2019s capital area \u2014 Kim: \u201cAn important link in deterring war\u201dNorth Korea said it plans to deploy the new weapon it test-fired on the 26th along the border to target the South\u2019s capital area. On the 27th, the Korean Central News Agency reported that, with State Affairs Commission Chairman Kim Jong Un observing, a defense science research agency test-fired a lightweight multipurpose missile-launch system and a multiple-launch tactical cruise missile weapons system.According to the report, the tactical cruise missile, with a range of 100 km, will be deployed to a long-range artillery brigade in the southern border region. If the cruise missile system is positioned near the Military Demarcation Line along North Korea\u2019s southern border, it could strike much of the Seoul metropolitan area, including the city itself.South Korea\u2019s Joint Chiefs of Staff said a short-range ballistic missile launched that day from the Jeongju area in North Pyongan Province toward the Yellow Sea flew roughly 80 km. KCNA described the tactical cruise missile as combining an ultra-precise autonomous navigation system and terrain-matching navigation, and said it incorporates AI-enabled terminal guidance that allows \u201cextremely precise\u201d strikes at 100 km. Im Eum-chul, a professor at the Institute for Far Eastern Studies at Gyeongsang National University, said, \u201cThey have introduced new technologies like AI and complex-flight modes, maximizing guidance performance and evasive-maneuver capability.\u201d Chairman Kim, who observed the test launches, said, \u201cThe current situation urges continuous military modernization,\u201d and added, \u201cBuilding the most modern and most powerful artillery force\u2014one unmatched by anyone\u2014is our top policy priority in strengthening our armed forces.\u201d He warned, \u201cEquipping ourselves with destructive power so overwhelming that an opposing force\u2019s survival would be theoretically impossible\u2014even by chance\u2014is an essential condition for our military\u2019s operations. Such capability inflicts extreme anxiety and fear on the enemy and itself serves as an important link in deterring war; it is a responsible exercise.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
