The Ukrainian military has claimed to have destroyed a North Korean Bulsae-4 anti-tank missile system operated by the Russian Armed Forces.

In a video shared by Kyiv’s Third Assault Brigade, a supposed Windbreaker suicide drone tracked and hit the North Korean weapon as it moved along a road in Kharkiv Oblast.

Prior to this, Ukraine’s forces had also destroyed several Russian vehicles using the one-way attack drone.


The Bulsae-4 is described as a long-range anti-tank weapon capable of destroying armored targets up to 25 kilometers (15.5 miles) away.

It is mounted on an M-2010 6×6 wheeled armored vehicle, offering enhanced mobility and flexibility on the battlefield.

The system also employs an electro-optical seeker, enabling precise strikes, even beyond the line of sight.

More Evidence

The destruction of the Bulsae-4 missile system is seen as further evidence of North Korea’s direct involvement in the conflict.

Earlier this year, a similar weapon was spotted by a Ukrainian drone operating in the Kharkiv region.

Additionally, Russia reportedly launched about 60 North Korean KN-23 missiles at Ukraine, furthering its invasion efforts.

These sightings confirm earlier Ukrainian intelligence reports indicating broader North Korean military support for Moscow.

Apart from weapon systems, Pyongyang has allegedly sent at least 11,000 troops to reinforce Russian frontline units in Kursk, according to Ukrainian Defense Minister Rustem Umerov.
