North Korean leader Kim Jong Un attended a ceremony on Friday for the launch of a "new multipurpose destroyer," state media KCNA reported on Saturday.
The 5,000-tonne destroyer is equipped with the "most powerful weapons" and was built "within 400-odd days perfectly with our own strength and technology," Jo Chun Ryong, a secretary in the ruling Workers' Party, was quoted as saying.
Kim was present at the event held at Nampho dockyard, a military shipbuilding base also referred to as Nampo.
The leader thanked the workers and technicians for building the new destroyer, which is "true to the party's line of strengthening the naval forces," KCNA added.
