PYONGYANG, Aug. 25 -- Kim Jong Un, top leader of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), guided a test-firing of newly developed super-large multiple rocket launcher on Saturday, the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported Sunday.

The test proved that all the tactical and technological specifications of the launcher system correctly reached the preset indexes, the KCNA said in a report.

Kim praised the great weapon and the young national defense scientists for designing and completing the weapon system at one go-off.

"What made him happy today is that a contingent of young and promising talents who will shoulder upon the rapid development of the Juche-oriented defence industry grow in the course of the development of the new weapon," the report said.

Kim also said an important mission of the DPRK defense industry is to increase national defence capabilities in every way, the KCNA reported.

On Saturday morning, the DPRK fired two short-range ballistic missiles off its eastern coast in South Hamgyong Province, according to South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Saturday's test marked the seventh missile launch by the DPRK since July 25 and the ninth this year, which came after the end of a joint annual military exercises between South Korea and the United States earlier this week.
