Wow. Hwasong-16 on stage behind Kim Jong Un at Defense 2021 meeting, more from @nknewsorg soon
@nknewsorg It's got everything. Hwasong-16, 15, 14, and that new "hypersonic missile"?
A portrait of Kim Jong Un sitting in military uniform with Pak Jong Chon at his shoulder too
Hwasong-12 not 14 at the right, apologies
Looks like possibly the new cruise missile they tested recently on the ground there
Kim Jong Un shooting guns
Enjoying a cigarette together with top officials is sort of a motif state media uses when Kim Jong Un is especially happy with missile tests, or now displays
Also a KN-24 in new tan color scheme, thanks @JosephHDempsey for helping ID
@JosephHDempsey Design drawing for both color schemes on plans approved by Kim
BTW North Korea is calling the KN-24 its "Hwasong-11Na type ground-to-ground ballistic missile" (지상대지상탄도미싸일 <화성포-11나>형), where Na/나 seems like equivalent of B since Na is sorta the second 'letter' of the Korean alphabet
This photo is of the Aug. 10, 2019 test

The missile is restless
