Pyongyang, March 29 (KCNA) -- Kim Jong Un , general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, oversaw a test of assessing the tank performance organized by the Armored Weapons Institute of the Academy of Defence Sciences.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un expressed great satisfaction over the relevant test as it served as an occasion to show well how excellent our new-type MBT is and how dependable combat means it is through actual action, not words.

He said today's test proved that the functionality of our new-type MBT's interceptor system is fully equipped with a thorough capability for destroying almost all existing anti-tank means.

Commenting on the new-type MBT which demonstrated remarkable combat performance, he said it has been confirmed again that there is no doubt in our view, already declared, that no tank in the world is comparable to this tank.

The test, conducted in various aspects on the day to check the active protection system of the new-type MBT, examined in detail the combat effectiveness of the protection system against anti-tank means attacking in different directions and confirmed the perfect defensive function with 100 percent probability. -0-
