it should be emphasized that it is the practice of every nation (all), yesterday, today and tomorrow, to try to get their hands on civil or military projects that can be considered innovative and with the necessary modifications also be useful for the growth of the industry and for the needs national.
But the biggest mistake that continues to be made is that of always underestimating the autonomous design and construction capabilities of some nations, nations that would only be capable of copying (in reality, great capabilities are needed even just to copy a weapon system ).
It is written that the North Koreans have had access to information relating to missiles on Russian sites, but in the recent past it was indicated that the rocket engine technology was of Ukrainian origin, but it must also be said by observing the latest photos of the weapon systems factories .
1) the 8x8 is certainly not like any Soviet/Russian 8x8. Likewise none of the versions of this North Korean 8x8 have similar Russian versions.
2) Until recently it was written that TELs were made on Chinese looms, today they prove that they are made from scratch in North Korea.
3) Drones and UAVs certainly don't look like Russian products
4) and the Naval System that looks like the Oto Melara 76/62 Compact with invisible dome certainly doesn't look like a Russian product.
5) ditto for many anti-tank missiles, including some with similarities to Israeli products.
Therefore, either the men of the North Korean secret services + hackers are good enough to pierce the archives of countries all over the planet, or it would be appropriate to accept that the DPRK, thanks also to the very heavy sanctions and ebargos it has suffered, has effectively developed its military industry which today makes it almost independent of foreign supplies.
In fact, one of the new drones appears to be propelled by a jet engine (turbojet-turbofan ?) which should be of size and power (possibly with afterburner and in torque) also adaptable for a possible new piloted aircraft, (Training/Coin, small fighter jet) and who knows if we will soon see this piloted aircraft fly or as a drone that had been immortalized on the ground via satellite.
So let's not underestimate, certainly the renewed friendships and those with other sanctioned countries, could eventually speed up the production capacities of the native North Korean systems.
The Central Military Commission of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) convened an enlarged meeting to discuss an important issue of making the army more thoroughly gird for a war given the grave political and military situation prevailing in the Korean peninsula.
