“The competition to use drones as the primary means of military capability… is happening rapidly around the world ,” he said, noting their expanding range of military applications, low production costs and simple production lines.
“These objective changes require updating many parts of military theory, practice and education ,” KCNA quoted Kim Jong Un as saying.
"The suicide attack drones will be used in various attack ranges to carry out the task of precision-strike on all enemy targets on the ground and at sea," KCNA noted.
The tests included drones accurately hitting targets after flying along multiple pre-set tactical routes, KCNA said.
North Korea first revealed the test of its military drone capabilities in August, which was also directly supervised by Kim Jong Un.
