Also displayed in the parade were multiple rocket launch systems, anti-aircraft guns and howitzers.
In his speech at the parade, Kim Yong Chun, vice chairman of the National Defense Commission, said the army and people of the DPRK would remain vigilant on the moves of the United States.
Washington hasn't moved a bit from its anti-DPRK policies and attempted to stifle DPRK against the backdrop of "dialogues", Kim said.
