>What are North Korea's military capabilities?
An outright joke. People paint it to be this legitimate threat, but the only way they could scrap the paint off the fender of another country is with WMDs. Hence their experimentation with them.
>What's the state of their air force?
They have a few Hughes 500s. Whether or not they are airworthy is unknown, but they have them in inventory.

What about their Mig-29s and how many flying hours do the pilots get?
>>29921610
15-25 annual flying hours according to a report by Janes, but they are said to have upped that somewhat since then.
>>29921610
They only have 35.
Most of their aircraft are MiG-17s and 19s.
Haha, I think the state of texas could beat them
In possession of WMDs.
In other words untouchable.
Wiki gives the following:
106 MiG-17
097 MiG-19
150 MiG-21 or license built version
020-50 Q-5 CAS
080 Il-28
056 MiG-23
035 MiG-29 (Fulcrum A, B and C - Mostly A.)
018 Su-7
034 Su-25 CAS
So basically a shitton of outdated stuff. But it doesn't matter.

This.
Only thing they have going is nukes, other than that maybe numbers but I can't imagine that thousands of malnourished dwarves will put up much of a fight if shit were to kick off.
