SEOUL, October 17 - North Korea has unveiled a new type of precision-guided torpedo system that incorporates artificial intelligence for target detection and guidance, according to state news agency KCNA. The underwater test-fire of the "super-speed" Zam-2.0 system occurred on Thursday, aimed at verifying the successful technical updates to the weapon.
KCNA stated that AI technology was applied to the target detection and guidance function of this new-type super-speed torpedo. In recent weeks, North Korea has made headlines by announcing the AI-assisted launch of an intermediate-range hypersonic missile. Earlier this year, leader Kim Jong Un stressed the importance of enhancing the level of artificial intelligence in the country's weapons systems.
Experts have suggested that North Korea might be advancing its missile technology rapidly with Russian military support in exchange for providing troops to assist in the country's war against Ukraine.
