According to him, Pyongyang has transmitted to Moscow about 120 self-propelled artillery installations of 170 mm M1989 "coxan" and as many jet fire systems M-1991 caliber 240 mm. In the future, the DPRK is expected to make a similar delivery. "They have many such systems," Budanov said. According to the newspaper, North Korea has created a huge arsenal of artillery over decades, in particular for a possible conflict with South Korea. It has now exported millions of artillery shells to Russia.
"170mm installations have powerful ammunition and good ability. The 240-mm RSSU is similar to any other heavy systems. They create more problems on the front line," said the Ukrainian Intelligence Head. In addition to artillery, 150 small KN-23 ballistic missiles are expected to be supplied in 2025. Budanov said that last year North Korea had already sent 148 such missiles. Now these missiles are launched from the territories of Kursk and Bryansk regions.
