This time, I will connect a reporter from the Ministry of Defense to organize this content.



Reporter Hong Young-jae, the military is currently analyzing the cause, but they say it's still in the early stages. So, when will the outline come out?



<Reporter> The



Joint Chiefs of Staff originally said that they would conduct a war readiness inspection for the entire operation against North Korean drones by the day after tomorrow (30th), but it is said that the inspection period could be further extended if necessary for accurate analysis.



It seems that it will take a considerable amount of time in the future not only to analyze it after the censorship is over, but also to prepare supplementary measures for the military system.

Above all else, isn't it important to clarify why the South Korean military was unable to drop North Korean drones?



<Reporter> The



Joint Chiefs of Staff explained that although our fighters that were tracking yesterday were able to shoot down the drones, the fighter pilots were in great agony because they were in the air above a private house.



At the time, the tracking fighter was the KA-1, and a former high-ranking military official said that in the case of the KA-1, hundreds of bullets could be fired even if the control stick was pulled for 2-3 seconds.



If some of them fall into a private house, it can cause great damage.



If so, it seems that this part must be clarified why it could not respond before the drone entered the house.



It seems that the root cause of the failure to shoot down the North Korean drone can be determined after comprehensively considering the timing of the drone detection and the timing of the order to shoot it down.



According to <anchor>



's explanation, isn't it necessary to make a weapon that can only drop drones without harming people?



<Reporter>



Some say that we need a separate weapon that can be used in non-wartime operational situations.



For example, methods of dropping drones by shooting jamming radio waves or directly striking drones with lasers or high-powered microwave weapons are being discussed.



Such a weapon is currently being developed by the Defense Science Research Institute, targeting the mid-2020s.

It should be 'your fault'
