Comrade Kim Jong Un gave a militant salute to the ultimate weapons that vividly reflect the patriotic souls of the red workers of the munitions industry, dedicated to the sacred cause of historic significance of the nation to firmly bolster up the world's greatest self-defensive military capability, and symbolize an epoch-making improvement of the military supremacy of the armed forces of the DPRK. At the end of the ceremony, cheers of "Hurrah!" filled with loyalty and patriotic zeal of the participants, resounded far and wide through the nocturnal sky. Looking round the new-type weapons again together with leading officials of the Party, the government and the military, and commanding officers of the large combined units, Kim Jong Unn expressed belief that the latest, elite weapons, another firm stepping stone for injecting tremendous vitality into the name and flag of the DPRK and remarkably enhancing its prestige, would demonstrate their might as a powerful treasured sword in defending the sovereignty of the country and peace.
