"One of our most important goals in defense policies and strategies is to be able to hit enemy weaponry, including aircraft carriers and warships, using long-range ballistic missiles," he said.
"It is common to hit moving targets in the sea by low-speed cruise missiles," the commander noted, "But using long-ranged missiles is a great defense achievement for us because we can hit the moving targets in the ocean from the heart of our land."
