First images of newly-built North Korean warship published by state media

Kim Jong Un boarded recently-built vessel during field visit to Chongjin Shipyard

North Korean state media this week provided the first public images of a newly built naval vessel during Kim Jong Un's Tuesday tour of the Chongjin Shipyard, two analysts confirmed to NK News on Thursday.

Kim was touring the east coast city and boarded what DPRK media called a "newly built warship" with state television broadcasting two still images of the North Korean leader aboard the vessel.
