North Korea's new Choe Hyon-class destroyer has been equipped with an unusually large number of machine-gun mounts designed to defend the vessel against drones, US-based publication The War Zone (TWZ) said. The publication drew attention to official footage from the sea trials of the destroyer Kang Kon, the second ship of its class. According to TWZ, the Choe Hyon-class destroyers are heavily armed for vessels of their size. The ship carries at least 12 strategic cruise missiles, a 127 mm naval gun, and a close-range air defense system equipped with a multi-barrel 30 mm cannon. Another notable feature is what the publication described as an astonishing number of machine guns. One image from the trials shows seven machine-gun mounts along the port side of the destroyer, with some mounts carrying twin weapons.
