During an inspection of a navy flotilla on an unspecified date, Kim boarded a patrol ship to review its weapons and preparations for combat, according to the official Korean Central News Agency. A state media photo showed him watching a soaring missile from the patrol ship from another place, not on the vessel.
Kim said he would bolster efforts to build powerful warships and modernise shipboard and underwater weapons systems for the North’s navy.
