Military parade in North Korea to celebrate 70° anniversary of it's Army

North Korea has celebrated the  70° anniversary of it's Army with an imposing military parade in Pyongyang. The latest ICMBS were shown, together with other novelties, such as the Bulsae-3 AT missile integrated in the Seon'Gun tank. According to some analists, the Bulsae-3 is a copy of the Russian AT missile Kornet, but it does look smaller in size.

One big novelty was the new SRBM, with a similar shape to the Russian Iskander.
