The leader of the DPRK inspected the tank units of the North Korean army. Official reports indicate that Kim Jong-un led the training competitions of tankers. This is a kind of Korean version of the Russian tank biathlon.

Messages from the Central Telegraph Agency of the DPRK (translated into Russian by the same agency):

Distinguished tank crews from large tank formations participated in the competition. When the competition began, the invincible tanks raced forward together, reflecting in their hum the valiant spirit of the tankers, fully charged with a firm fighting will to mercilessly exterminate the enemy.

The first place in the competition was taken by soldiers of the 105th Tank Division, which bears the remarkable name - Guards Seoul (recall that Seoul is the capital of South Korea).

In addition to tanks developed in the middle of the last century, modern models also participated in the maneuvers. They were, so to speak, tested by Kim Jong-un himself.

The tanks are equipped with active protection systems, modern optics, which, according to some experts, are locally made, while others are Chinese. The rollers and tracks are protected by an additional armored canopy. There are grilles that protect (as far as possible) the side and rear projections of the tank from ATGM and RPG grenades). At the same time, there are no anti-drone visors on North Korean armored vehicles.
