North Korea's Longest Gun | Chch'e'po M1978 Koksan SPG
Published at : 17 Dec 2025
The Chch'e'po was the first heavy Self-Propelled Gun independently developed in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) for the Korean People's Army (KPA).
This vehicle was developed as an ultra-long range mobile artillery system meant to strike sensitive targets in the Republic of Korea (ROK) without having to cross the Korean Demilitarized Zone and expose the artillery to opposing counter-battery fire.
