Wonder if Russia is in NK's ear encouraging this so that the US is forced to stretch themselves even more militarily... :ohhh:

i'd expect china before russia. even then i doubt china really wants a war with their biggest consumer.

i think it's just NK being NK. the only difference is they actually got the capability to really fukk shyt up this time. :beli:

That said, it was recently shown Russia helped NK with the nuke tech and have been providing them with aid to negate the sanctions. I don't think Russia would do all that without an endgame...

When ? There is no proof.


Poor Japan. They might be the next on that nuclear summer jam screen, again.

And why no one is even trying to shoot down those missiles ?

All of this talk about missile defense tech is trash imo. I have not seen any proof that any nation can reliably knock out a super sonic projectile even in a test environment let alone in a real world scenario with no advanced knowledge of a launch.

Yep, this is also what I am thinking. It seems that all that anti missile stuff is PR and Psy-OP. People seem unable to do it in real life. Otherwise, it would've been easier to shut down NK missiles and to show them that all their actions are useless.

My hypothesis : people are scared to shoot at those missiles because they know they will miss.

NK is literally exposing them.

Bingo.
It reminds me of regan's Star Wars defense system that never was.
The whole concept is akin to shooting a bullet out of the air with another bullet.

It sounds cool but we are a long way from that capability.

They could track it with the heat.
