Will it be WW3?
>>68602121
north korea is irrelevant anon, they can do what they want nobody care
>>68602121
:^)
>being this out of touch
>>68602377
but russia and china cares
>>68602121
I'm sure Kil Il-who-gives-a-fuck thinks he can spark a world war. To the rest of the world NK is pretty much a nonentity.
>>68602121
china would probably disavow and we'd be able to unify korea once again. north korea by itself would lose, obviously. if china had some reason to give it credence to fight with north korea (like US forces shooting down a chinese plane accidentally or something) then it would be more drawn out but stay conventional. america would win and north korea would be dissolved into a unified korea, but i doubt any significant changes would occur in china itself if the war didn't last long. the longer it would become the more likely the chinese government will not be allowed to remain the way it is though
>>68602121
They'd lose. Their military is large but relatively decrepit in their equipment. The NK military would probably break down under initial stress.
>>68602763
how will we stop the millions of soldiers running towards the south?
carpet bombing?
>>68602121
they would get their noggin popped
>>68602763
This. It would fall apart before it actually attacked anyone.
>>68603063
then why dont we invade? and give freedom
>>68602121
Even if a war started and we invaded they would never use nukes because they know their entire country would be literally turned to dust if they did.
But they would hit Seoul and other South Korean cities and possibly Japanese cities pretty hard with non-nuclear weapons and thousands would die but they wouldn't be able to keep it up for very long.
We would probably beat them in a few days maybe a couple weeks at the very most.
>>68603284
they really have "nukes"?
i thought this was just bs
>>68602121
they would get 20 km past the DMZ, run out of fuel and then get ground to dust by steady air bombardment. Their entire country would be fucking waylaid withing a week.
>>68603279
why dont u pay for it?
>>68602861
>implying canada will ever do anything meaningful in a war in the modern era ever
your GDP is way to low your population is way to low and the cost of labor to high
you literally cant afford to wage war. if your currency drops further then we can talk but until your at 60 cents value of a american dollar dont bother
or if your gdp grows about 3 times what it is now or if your population doubles
>>68603560
you guys dragged us into iraq
plus this weedman loves spending
so we can definitely afford a war.
>>68603403
Very small ones.
The "Hydrogen" bomb they tested was bs.
>>68602431
Not enough to fight us
>>68602431
not as much as they would have in the 80's
with the almost complete dissipation of communist vs non comunist states North Korea holds almost no value for china and russia, hell a profitable non money sink unified korea would probably wind up being a huge trading partner with russia and china within 10 years of the end of the war.
The war will be short and bloody as fuck in North Korea, strategically and tactically it'll be the same pain in the ass it was during the first Korean War. Nork is very mountainous and the terrain is really good for hiding SAM sites, and avoiding observation/setting ambushes, not to mention north korea's spent decades turning bits of the nation into fucking COBRA forts under hills and mountains.
It'd be a bloodbath for NORK but not nearly as instant as people like to assume. Unless after the out break Lil' Kims upper echelons turn on him and surrender.
>>68604184
what are the chances of them killing qt south koreans? i hope they dont kill any
>>68604184
>>68604431
i actually researched this scenairio for a wargame on Command: Modern Air/Naval Operations . You wanna see what i figured the norks could throw at the scenairio?
>>68603403
I could make a nuke in my back yard. of course they have nukes. anyone with half a brain could make a crude one, but a h bomb is a work of fucking art.
>>68604725
lots of artillery, rockets and not much gasoline?
>>68604810
A figured this would be the situation at about +3:00 hours
I. Situation. KPA forces have crossed the DMZ and are conducting offensive air and land incursions against the ROK in violation of the 1952 Armistice. Seoul and surrounding ROK bases have come under attack from indirect fire and air assault resulting in undetermined casualties. Defensive operations are underway, by the ROK, to delay and defend against the KPA incursion and US assistance is urgently requested. The AO is the Korean peninsula, including the Sea of Japan and the Yellow Sea.
A. Enemy Forces. Undetermined number of batteries, some in hardened structures, of M-1978 and M-1989 artillery pieces are currently conducting fire missions on Seoul and surrounding environs. These batteries are aligned along the north side of the DMZ from Kyonggi Bay to Pyonggang. six divisions of Chonma-Ho MBTs supported by six divisions of KPA Infantry of the 2nd and 4th Corps (including KPA-SOF support) have been reported conducting offensive operations as far as 18 miles south of the DMZ, IVO Soyang-si, Ujeongbu-si, Hwacheon, Chuncheon and the Pukhangang River. The KPAAF operates 8 airbases within 30 miles of the DMZ, and another 11 airbases throught DPRK territory. These bases operate multiple platforms including Mig-17F, Mig-19, Mig-21 clones and a total of 30 Mig-29 F/W aircraft. These bases also support Mi-14 and Mi-24 R/W aircraft. Multiple S-3a SAM sites form a defensive parameter around Pyongyang. Total KPA manpower is estimated to be 9,495,000 active and reserve personnel, including 1,500,000 KPA personnel stationed at the DMZ.

(Cont.)
KPA has multiple sites of Nodong-2 and SS-21a SSM in operation throughout the DPRK with maximum range of 20 miles, several of which are within range of northern ROK urban centers. These SSM sites, along with M-1978 and M-1989 artillery batteries, have the capacity to cause massive losses to forces within 20 miles in range of the DMZ. These batteries also present an addional NBC risk considering the KPA's extensive chemical and biological arsenal. KPAAF and KPAN assets are obsolete platforms compared to ROK and US platforms. The KPA operates 3rd generation SAM and AAA platforms throughout DPRK airspace that are incapable of damaging most ROK and US air assets in theater. KPA installation utilize commercial ASR and is highly susceptible to ECM attack. KPA armor is inferior in design to ROK and US analogues, but constitute a larger force numerically.
If US forces do not intervene KPA forces have the capability of taking and controlling about 50% of ROK territory. KPA intends to continue attacks southward along the Korean peninsula most likely in two fronts advancing along the east and west coasts respectively along the same axis. KPA may use NBC assault on US-ROK forces if they feel that DPRK territory come under threat of occupation. If operation parity shifts against KPA forces, they are expected to defend and delay against invading units with fanatical dedication among active forces and with less zeal among reserve forces. Most reserve units will be tasked with internal distribution, security and logistical tasks detracting from their defensive potential. Nuclear attack by No-Dong 2 platforms are a possibility despite no confirmation of operational capability.

>+3:00 hours
meaning three hours into simulation
>>68604808
the work of art is really when the H bomb detonate tho, is it not?
>>68602121
SK would become a radioactive island.
>>68602121
If NK is the aggressor they will get curbstomped like little bitches by the entire world while the Chinese cover their ears and pretend they have nothing to do with any of it
A week later after the war is over then we all go the fuck home.
>>68602121
Japan would nuke them if they even as much as farted in their general direction. North Korea is harmless.
>>68605708
>Japan
>Having nukes
>>68605708
>Japan would nuke them
Ummmm.....
Seoul is so fucked.
If NK launched nukes anywhere it would be there. If they launched them anywhere else they will launch a ground invasion with the sole intent on taking Seoul.
>>68602121
as has been stated, the norks are on a pretty short leash. if they START a war, then china will wash their hands of the whole thing and let literally every neighbor they have plus NATO do target practice. the war would be over in like a week
ffs, we have enough HIMARS alone stationed in South Korea to turn the north into a parking lot twice
>>68603279
Because we don't police the world
>>68602658
they have 100 nukes to lose they will suicide before they lose to us. Kim is already starting war its getting colder and colder every day with him launching missiles for food and noone to help him.
>>68606014
Pretty sure the first thing they'd do is nuke Seoul if they decided to wage war
that's why we don't want war, we could wipe NK off the face of the earth in a couple days, but it'd only take an hour for them to kill millions of people
>>68602121
North Korean is the least threat out of all the countries of the world.
ISIS-sympathizers/jihads could overtake North Korea in a month.
The only reason they still exist is because the world lets shitholes like Saudia Arabia and Iran exist.
India is a literal shithole. They worship cows and blamed water/plant poisoning on butchers.
They over-graze the land and let cows shit everywhere.
Remember those fucking retard rednecks who tried to hold up a Federal building because they wanted to destroy a natural reserve?
That's India in a nut shell.
>>68602763
unlikely.
North Korea military advisors have been helping Syria for quite some time. They also have been deploying troops in Syria to help. North Korea's military knows what they are doing and they have experience. Their arsenals are only getting larger. There's a reason the US government is always quick to respond to N. Korea's threats.
