Pyongyang, September 19: Japanese media has claimed that King-Jong-un led North Korea is secretly developing nuclear-capable submarines. The outlets say that the information came from an anonymous but reliable source. The war-machine will be fully operational by 2020.
If the North Korean regime manages to develop nuclear submarines, it will be a major boost for its navy that boasts of 50-60 diesel-electric submarines.The report said that work is in full swing in North Korea’s Nampo Naval Shipyard. The North Koreans have managed to get support from Chinese and Russian engineers.
A nuclear submarine is much better than the diesel-electric submarines as they have longer range and are quicker. They are stealthier as well. A missile fired from a submarine is difficult to detect. Paired with ballistic missiles, nuclear submarines greatly increase country’s firepower.
