State media released photos of their leader looking at maps alongside military chiefs during an inspection of North Korea's Strategic Forces, which handles the country's missile programme, on Monday.
One large map appeared to show a straight line between northeastern North Korea and Guam, a US territory in the western Pacific that is home to American military bases.
The line passed through Japan and apparently showed the flight route of four ballistic missiles Pyongyang has threatened to fire at Guam, which is 3,200 km (2,000 miles) from North Korea's capital.
Mr Kim was reported to have ordered his military to be prepared to launch missiles towards Guam at any time.
He claimed it will be "the most delightful historic moment" when the weapons "wring the windpipes of the Yankees and point daggers at their necks", according to state media
