new battle tank on North Korea state TV. The latest news was Pokpung (Storm), It was only a fake news. A South Korean army told the Pokpung appearing was an developed version of the North Korean Army's late model "Chonma" (Flying Horse) in terms of firepower and facile last week. The Pokpung tank is also known as the M-2002, as it is assumed to have been rolled out in 2002. A magazine published by the Defense Ministry said, weapon with a 125mm or 115 mm gun, the Pokpung appears to be really improved version of the former Soviet Union's T-62 tank. It seemed to be more heavily weapon with a 14.5 mm KPV anti-aircraft machine gun, which was more powerful than the 12.7 mm machine gun mounted on older tanks. It also set up with a laser range finder and an infrared searchlight, the tank is assumed to have a higher accuracy as it has a more modern fire control system than earlier models. The magazine said that the Pokpung had been built at the Ryu Kyong-su Tank Factory since it was developed in the 1990s. Finally, The North Korean Army has about 3,900 tanks, much more than the South Korean Army's 2,300, but they are believed to perform much more poorly. I think although the North Korea will have anything else. It still has the old one or come from other country as second hand. All in all, the news is a rumor.Sunday 22 August 2010
