North Korea Surface Warships: 2019 - 2020

Printed in COLOR

We thought we would assemble a list of active combatant ships in the North Korean Navy. We tried to include a photo of each as well as the general performance and weapons. Some of the information is not available, and some of the photographs are not in the public domain, so we did the best we could. We decided to print the book in color so some of the details readily stand out. It’s pretty obvious that the North Korean Navy has given up trying to launch anti-submarine helicopters from ships and are focusing on smaller, stealthier boats.

Some of the more interesting boats we found were the SECRET mystery boats such as:
Very Slender Vessels (VSL)
Low-Observable Torpedo Boats
Submersible Infiltration Landing Craft
