The South Korean military believes North Korea's air-to-air missile technology may have been advanced with Russian assistance.

This belief is in line with earlier remarks by analysts here who suggested Pyongyang may have received radar or software technology from Moscow in return for troop deployment.

Last week the regime conducted its first live-fire test of an air-to-air missile that reportedly successfully intercepted targets.

With regard to this latter claim military authorities here have countered its credibility adding that actual deployment could take considerable time.

Relevant authorities are also seeking to assess the extent of Russian involvement in the missile's development.
