Kim Jong Un Tours Fighter Jet Plant During Russia Visit

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un toured a Russian factory that makes fighter jets, as the US warned he is on a visit that could support the Kremlin’s assault on Ukraine. Kim arrived in the eastern city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur on Friday to see a facility that makes high-tech fighter jets and other aircraft. He was shown planes including the Su-35 as well as the Su-57 stealth combat fighter, according to a Russian government Telegram channel. Kim’s limousine was later shown on social media being loaded onto the personal armored train that took him to Russia. North Korea’s air force consists mostly of antiquated aircraft and is not considered much of a threat for the more sophisticated military equipment in the region operated by the US, Japan and South Korea. -------- Subscribe to our YouTube channel: Subscribe to Bloomberg Originals: Bloomberg Quicktake brings you global social video spanning business, technology, politics and culture.
