According to Yonhap, North Korea plans to supply Russia with its latest 240-mm Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) for use in the conflict against Ukraine.

The report indicates that Pyongyang is accelerating the development of ammunition for these systems, anticipating their deployment in actual combat in Ukraine before potentially targeting South Korea.

The updated MLRS boasts high mobility, concentrated firepower, and an automatic integrated fire control system. It is slated to be introduced into service with units of the Korean People's Army as replacement equipment between 2024 and 2026.
