Kim Jong Un oversees AI missile launch; North Korea claims manoeuvring capabilities

Kim Jong Un oversees AI missile launch; North Korea claims weapon holds manoeuvring capabilities North Korea has successfully launched a missile utilizing artificial intelligence, showcasing its ability to maneuver mid-flight. This advanced missile exhibited unique features, such as maintaining a low-altitude and unpredictable trajectory. Kim Jong Un monitored the test, aiming to bolster the nation’s missile capabilities against interception systems. Meanwhile, South Korea asserts its defense mechanisms can effectively detect and counter this new AI-driven missile technology. North Korea has claimed it has added artificial intelligence technology to a missile to make the weapon capable of changing its flight path and extremely difficult to intercept, escalating concerns over Pyongyang's efforts to develop more sophisticated missile systems.North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw the missile launch, with state media claiming the weapon demonstrated advanced manoeuvring capabilities, including flight at low altitude.Pyongyang claimed the weapon was fitted with an AI based guidance system that can make real time adjustments to its flight path, including low altitude manoeuvres, making it harder for enemy missile defence systems to predict and intercept.Kim's sister and senior North Korean official Kim Yo Jong said the missile demonstrated a “wave like” flight trajectory, which she claimed could complicate enemy tracking and interception.North Korea has presented the test as evidence of progress in developing weapons capable of penetrating advanced missile defence networks.North Korea described the weapon as an intermediate range strategic ballistic missile linked to its hypersonic strategic weapon system.According to South Korea, the missile was launched from the Wonsan area and travelled more than 700 km towards the East Sea. North Korean state media, however, claimed that it struck a target around 1,000 km away. End of Article
