For the first time, North Korean soldiers fighting for the russian Armed Forces were seen using 60-mm mortars [60 미리박격포], which were initially spotted in russian service this June.
The same applies to the 107-mm Type-75 multiple launch rocket systems, which were first spotted with mysterious cluster rockets in the russian Armed Forces in June.
In addition, North Korean soldiers in the russian army were seen using ATGMs for the first time, specifically the Bulsae-4 and Bulsae-2/3 variants.
The first reports of Bulsae-4 ATGMs entering service with the russian Armed Forces appeared in July last year, although they were later denied. North Korean soldiers deployed these ATGMs not in their usual M-2010 APC configuration, but in a more mobile version mounted on a pickup truck chassis.
As for previous variants of these anti-tank guided missile systems, Bulsae-2 is an upgraded version of the Soviet 9K111 Fagot anti-tank missile system. Bulsae-3 is likely an adaptation of the 9M133 Kornet ATGM and is equipped with a missile with a laser guidance system.
It has also been shown that the North Korean military is adopting the experience of operating FPV drones on the battlefield.
