thank kek. please be true.

I actually hope this is actually going to happen, but it's most likely another stage of this pissing contest between both of them.

Guys! Two Baofengs escorting a Skyking just swam passed my boat!

yeah, i'm mentally filing this away next to all kim's countless other blathering insults and threats. i hope the retard is stupid enough to try this. talk about misplaying your hand, his one guarantee of safety was keeping the strength of their chinese relationship a secret. instead, he's threatened with nukes he can't even launch reliably and weakened ties with china considerably. the guy's a dumbass.

please

wow! sounds like it's really happening.

hmmm is this the hail of fire? youtube.com/watch?v=_ZwVNxITq8M

park was impeached
moon was elected this year

>hail of piss for next 10 years

>mfw he’s alluding to the fires in California

why doesn't the fat little faggot grow a pair and just declare war? it's always "if the usa does such and such." nut up or shut up, little rocket boi.

it would be funny if they tried to launch it but it just blew up on the launchpad and they nuked themselves.

Little rocket man cannot be stopped! No amount of delegating or promises will ever stop him! The only thing that will work is a military solution

I am so sick of this bullshit. Being alive for as long as I have, I have seen North Korea make the same fucking threats for decades now. LITERALLY DECADES.

NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN. If it were IT WOULD HAVE ALREADY HAPPENED.

Trump is ALL TALK AND NO ACTION.

FIRE AND FURY MY ASS.

A pre-emptive strike against North Korea will need to bring a truly terrifying density of fire to bear against the whole of the country, from top to bottom, in a short window of time, with pinpoint accuracy, and without telegraphing the move. This will be enabled largely by the United States’s strategic bomber fleet and its ability to conduct inter-continental, round-trip attacks.
B-52s and B-1Bs operating out of the United States will time their (weapons) arrival with that of their counterparts launched from Guam. Guam - and to a lesser extent, Okinawa - will be favored for forward basing because Chinese spies in mainland Japan won’t be able to catalog the buildup and tip off North Korea. The initial salvos of air-launched weapons will be weapons with very low RCS, like the JASSM or JASSM-ER, allowing them to penetrate DPRK airspace completely unaided by jammers, SEAD or DEAD, or weapons of low RCS and exceptional range and striking power, like the B-52s CALCMC/D with the massive 3,000 pound blast/frag warhead or 1,200 pound penetrator (compared to the nominal 1,000 pound payload of a Tomahawk.) Tomahawk missiles will also be launched in terrifying numbers, hitting soft or semi-hardened targets across the peninsula, with TTPV penetrator variants reserved for important, hardened targets.
These initial salvoes will prioritize the following targets:
- North Korea’s air defense network, especially the two hardened SA-5 sites, and the seven hardened SA-3 sites around Pyongyang, as well as any known operating locations of their most modern radars. These will be hit by JASSM penetrator variants or AGM-86D penetrators.
- Any fixed air defense site that’s close enough to be a problem, such as the majority of the SA-2 sites near the DMZ or guarding the approaches to Pyongyang.
- Every single radar of any stripe or age who’s position is known at the time of attack.

- Every single radar of any stripe or age who’s position is known at the time of attack.
- Critical roads and bridges - while North Korea has dug in sufficiently to place entire production facilities too deep for easy attack, the rugged, hilly nature of North Korea limits the actual transit routes for these supplies to chokepoints defined by valleys and through-mountain tunnels.
- Tons of civilian dual-use infrastructure, starting with any telephone exchange, any cell tower, and most definitely the terminal buildings where the ISP landlines between the DPRK and China (and now Russia) terminate.
- Any air, ground or sea asset not in a bunker will be hit.
- Any and every power station, down to individual big generators, will be hit.
- Every airbase. Exposed facilities will be destroyed, and runways will be cratered by penetrating cruise missiles. The famous “runway-in-a-mountain” airfields will be particularly useless, as one well-placed weapon will drop a few tons of rock on the runway, which you can’t patch with a few hours of work, some concrete and a couple of bulldozers.

sadly, this. the usa can't even beat some starving rice farmers. we've fought and lost to them twice, once in nam once in korea. what a joke. imagine us going up against russia.

VLS capacity for this task that US Forces will bring to bear alone is vast - the Ohio-class sub in the area, alone, has 154 of these weapons. This initial salvo will hit the highest-priority targets and utterly flatten the DPRK’s air defense system, without telegraphing the blow from the word “go” like intense jamming activity would. Intense jamming support would commence immediately from aircraft lifting off from South Korean bases even as F-15 Strike Eagles (from the US) and F-15s from the ROK perform minimum-interval takeoffs to charge into DPRK airspace and release Small Diameter Bombs and JDAMS - in addition to Strike Eagles from Okinawa and/or mainland Japan who will arrive in long DPRK EW range just as their EW ceases to exist. This wave of PGMs - in addition to some bunker-busting cruise missiles from the first wave - will have special targets - every bunker complex known (or suspected) to house the DPRKs SRBM force on their road-mobile TELs. Very recently we got our first good pictures of what these tunnels look like on the inside, as well as what their exits look like. It’s quite likely that these bases are deep and prolific enough that we can never deliver enough ordinance to all of them, all at once, to blast them all… but we don’t have to. Our limit is one of quality as well as quantity - the 5,000 pound GBU-28 can only be carried by a few aircraft, and the 30,000 pound MOP only by our 20 B-2s. But we can deliver far more BLU-109 2,000 pound perpetrators with our usual aircraft (F-16s, F-18s, F-15s, B-52s, B-1Bs, etc.) And it’ll only take one hit apiece from those weapons to collapse the tunnel entrances. It is entirely feasible - especially with TTPV Tomahawks from the ships - to hit all the tunnel entrances of any bunker complex located anywhere that intel knows, or reasonably suspects, TELs could be hidden… or even any bunker with roads good enough to allow TELs access in the first place.

The majority of North Korea’s SRBM force will be sealed up in their bunkers until we can come back with more force. Hitting the entrances with GATOR mines will also be effective; mixed AP/AT to complicate removal efforts.
These strikes will be aided by MGM-140 ATACMS strikes from both US and ROK M270 systems, and the South Korean Hyunmoo-II bunker-penetrating ballistic missile, which can reach most of the DPRK from South Korea.
During - or even before - this phase, B-2s from both Guam and CONUS will be arriving on target within minutes of each other, hitting the highest-priority targets with 30,000 pound MOPs; including crucial C4 bunkers and/or missile/TEL bases. Stockpiled weapons not yet mounted on delivery systems, as well as production facilities will be ignored - the initial blow will be all about taking out immediate threats and/or command, control and leadership. F-22s will exploit their stealth to deliver SDB penetrating glide-bombs directly to priority targets - or they will loiter, reserving their SDBs while very close to potential target areas, aided by the penninsula’s small size.

Shortly after the opening salvo of missiles, and during the initiation of the all-out air assault on the DPRK, another effort will be ongoing - neutralization of the DPRKs artillery pointed at Seoul. Priority will be given to HARTs previously identified as firing locations for the artillery that can actually range Seoul - the 170mm guns and the rocket artillery. Coalition artillery will open up with pre-planned fire missions on these locations, including liberal use of M270 MLARS systems to hit firing ports with precise M31 strikes. Before the initial cruise missile salvo even lands, forward recon assets - including small drones like ScanEagles and high-altitude recon platforms like the Grey Eagle - will be in the air over Seoul, in numbers low enough to avoid suspicion (if they’re noticed on radar,) or unnoticeable at all (in the case of stealth drones like the RQ-170 and RQ-180.) These would be directly over the DMZ within two or three minutes, and would provide immediate BDA assessment to guarantee destruction of priority targets, as well as provide laser designation to allow engaging select HARTs with M712 Copperhead laser-guided artillery shells. Against reverse-slope HARTs, these weapons fired from forward-deployed M777s (perhaps helo-deployed forward only 24 hours before) and fired in the ‘ballistic’ mode will be the favored method of engagement. Drones will also enable immediate strikes of their own against previously undedected “pop-up” targets with small bombs or Hellfire missiles. Other precision weapons are possible, such as an early deployment of the ground-launched SDB. The ROKs own precision weaponry will be deployed en-masse at this time as well.

Supporting the massive blitz against the DMZ artillery will be platforms like the Harvest Hawk and its derivatives; PGM bomb trucks. Drones and Harvest Hawks will also be flying North, heading towards select areas where they will keep overwatch over particular bunker complexes, in case they housed TELs and were not hit, or in case one or two backup tunnel entrances were missed. At this point, between the initial salvoes and allied EW, the DPRKs only credible air defense will be MANPADS, which the drones can fly above. Supporting these efforts will be early deployments of RQ-170s and RQ-180s as deep into enemy airspace as their EW network’s density and activity allow, supported by F-22s to provide instant on-call strike ability against prompt targets. When vehicles are spotted emerging from cover (via the Moving Target Indicator/Synthetic Aperture radar on the RQ-170/180,) or are detected post-launch, both the TEL - and the tunnel it emerged from - will be promptly engaged with SDBs. Once drones and/or Harvest Hawks arrive at their orbit points, the F-22s can conduct secondary strikes with their payloads and land at southern ROK airbases for immediate re-arming for counter-air roles, if Chinese involvement is considered imminent. Engaging pop-up targets from tunnels during this phase is mostly about the weapon’s travel time - immediate fire could also be called in from offshore naval vessels using Tomahawks, for instance. The small width of the peninsula and the range of most coalition standoff weapons leave only response time as the variable in question when allocating these resources. The C-130s can make air-refueled journeys from Guam or Okinawa and are easily camouflaged as ordinary transports, and the drones have both long endurance, range and deniability - heavy recon assets in the ROK are not unusual; as we’ve kept many drones and even two U-2S deployed there for a while now.

Following close on the heels of this barrage will be B-52s from Guam armed with Quickstrike-ER mines, who will conduct pre-planned attacks to mine the approaches of the DPRK’s many small naval bases, to inhibit sorties by special forces insertion assets. The ROK’s navy - whatever wasn’t pre-positioned for deception purposes - will be sortieing. The USN will have ships at sea, but a greater number of SSNs, as they provide more Tomahawk tubes and can be deployed aggressively - especially outside of DPRK naval bases - without telegraphing the blow. These will use active sonar to simplify locating the many small midget subs the DPRK uses, relying on their vastly superior weapon range to destroy targets before they’re engaged in turn. Efforts will be made to sink DPRK subs and patrol boats in the harbor approaches, in order to close the channels and bottle up assets.
As the long-range weapons that can aim Seoul are wiped out, artillery fire and PGM strikes will shift to the shorter-ranged systems the North Koreans will be firing on the (well-dug in) troops on the DMZ. ROK and US attack helicopters will be scrambling and moving in as allied forces await the inevitable DPRK ground force mobilization, which will be greatly limited in the number of routes they can advance on due to the rough geography. This will make ideal concentrations of force to hit with artillery and airstrikes.

During these events the DPRK will be attempting to fire as many SRBMs and cruise missiles as possible. The latter will be pounced upon by defending fighters guided by AWACS, and the former will be flying into the teeth of the best ABM defenses on the planet - first ship-based SM-3, then THAAD systems, then Patriot PAC-3 systems that will be defending both the ROK and Japan. Every successful launch will be quickly located by US ISTAR assets, including IR early-warning satellites, drones (as mentioned,) and high-power land, sea and air-based radars. The small number of Marine F-35Bs at Iwakuni, given their current payload limitations imposed by software, will be well-used as responsive scouts in this instance; quickly moving towards spotted launches at supersonic speed before utilizing their advanced sensors and data-fusion capabilities to locate TELs and tunnel entrances for prompt attack via Tomahawks, airpower, or even tactical ballistic missiles, depending on location, range and urgency.

Lastly, the largest special-operations insertion in modern history will be underway, and certainly the largest since the D-day drops in WWII. Fleets of spec-ops helicopters and C-130s from Guam, the ROK, Japan, Okinawa and even V-22s off amphibious carriers will enter newly-permissive DPRK airspace to camp out on priority targets - especially the most problematic bunker complexes in the terrain that makes reliable air recon of tunnel entrances the most difficult, or attack less than certain of success. Any DPRK SRBMs that aren’t sealed in by bomb strikes on the tunnel entrances will meet Green Berets with M72s and Carl Gustavs when they emerge to fire. With the advantage of speed, surprise, violence of action, vastly superior training and equipment and of course punishing fire support from coalition airpower and naval Tactical Tomahawks (orbiting overhead, waiting for something to kill,) they’ll be highly effective against targets that even the most cutting-edge sensors and PGMs on earth cannot guarantee destruction of.

Action when?

If we "lost," there wouldn't be a S. Korea.

Here we go, boys.

tl;dr?

we have to fight this or kim we invade like in the 50s. that's his goal.

oops meant will

They won't. They don't really give a shit about what others say to them, it's just to use as fodder for domestic politics and to keep the people pissed at the imperialist pigs instead of the ones starving them.
They are going to back down a bit for a year or two when they get promised some freight containers of luxury good for the party and some humanitarian rice for the people.

i get what you mean, but if we truly won there wouldn't be a north korea right now. burgers can never stand to admit when they lose a war.

Tl;dr

trump's different though. i think he means no nukes.

He says this shit six times a day before breakfast. Not happening. Yet.

This is a legitimate concern regarding weapons systems. No matter how many failsafes you build into the system, they are inherently PART OF THE SYSTEM. If the system does a "crash and burn" and the system integrity is breached then there is the possibility for a "failsafe circuit" to "rewire" itself into a "detonation circuit.

I do not have direct knowledge of nuclear systems but I do have direct knowledge regarding complex systems, some of which I have seen on fire.

are you doing this in every thread on purpose?
t. newfag

Where is this assessment from? I assume you weren't autistic enough to type it yourself.

We fought a limited, contained war in Korea. If we take the gloves off, they are doomed. We fought the first war to save Korea from the communists. If we fight in defense of our own soil then we will expend more fury.

Based North Koreans. They're only starving due to the huge economic sanctions and aggression imposed by (((AMERICA))).
America can't understand why N.Korea doesn't want to be like them when frankly they would be better off without the American influence in any way.

What do you expect any country to do if they were as impoverished as NK as a result of any other countries influence.

America is cancer. Kim is right to stand up for himself and have the will and ability wipe you off the planet when you eventually overstep the mark.

Listen

Nukes are a meme, they might not even exist.

In order to maintain power, nuclear states play by this meme.

The Norks will never deploy nukes because it would spell disaster for their entire regime. They make threats periodically because they know other nuclear states will have to respond and appease them.

Why do you think the Yids are so neurotic about Iran having nukes? It means Iran now has way more leverage over their golem, the US.

ikr, now Kim is just becoming annoying with these empty threats. I just want him dead now, in nuclear fire

that's part of war though, the willingness to go all in. the usa doesn't like committing unless there's oil. not crying liberal tears over that, just saying.

Good eye, bro. I dd not see that. That is all one poster.

The bro up the page already outed you as a baseless contrarian. You did not address my inclusion of "soil" in my argument, therefor sidestepping my intent. You are a shitty shitposter.

Honestly if I was president I'd just dismiss every statement the Norks made while preparing to fuck their shit up if they step out of line.
>Mr. President, North Korea has just announced-
>Who? I don't talk about noncountries. Next question.

It's OK, I looked it up, it's some fag on Tumblr of all places. I think it may be rather optimistic.

oh a butthurt mallsharter who can't admit when his military sucks ass. i'll say it again, the usa doesn't have the sack to fight a fullscale war. now get bent.

IM SEEING FIGHTER JETS OVER I-95

Wow old regurgitated info from a click bait news agency real interesting OP you massive faggot

did not read.
i hope kimmy will reduce you into ash

i've seen this tactic in almost every thread today, think it might be a new shill distraction/derail technique

you guys are schizos. i'm just a north korean happening sperg. that's it. i'm not trying to derail anything.

And thus is this thread derailed...

As pathetic as this bickering is, I have actually come to enjoy it. These two countries are like two faggots locked in an endless contest for the most elaborately bellicose threat. I hope the war never happens so that we can keep reading this shit for decades to come. Keep it up, fellas, it's entertaining.

Thanks. Keep targeting these, please.

I've been waiting for this moment.

Just nuke Commiefornia. With its new HIV and pronoun laws, fuck them all.

more like THREAD COMPED

I think we need to go rid britain of the sandniggers typing shit like this.

Kim Jung Un's legacy shall be that he will reunite Korea and drive off the western parasitic imperialist once and for all.

btw screen cap this.
