Hey squad! This weekend, KCNA reported that the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) is gearing up to boost its air force with fresh strategic military assets and a new key mission. 🛩️🎯
At the 80th founding anniversary of the Korean People's Army Air Force last Friday, top leader Kim Jong Un announced high hopes for this upgrade. According to the report, these assets will play a critical role in the DPRK's nuclear deterrence strategy.
Kim highlighted that the air force must also stand ready to counter any espionage or provocations against its sovereign airspace with "overwhelming spiritual strength and offensive spirit."
Plus, Kim Jong Un watched an impressive demonstration flight and awarded the Order of Kim Jong Il—the country's highest honor—to the air force unit involved. 🏅
This move marks another step in the DPRK's ongoing push to modernize its military capabilities and reinforce its defense posture. Stay tuned for more updates!
