NorthKorea's game plan and capability John A. Tirpak - 2021
North Korea's plan of how to deter an attack is to rely on strategic missiles and a nascent nuclear program. Though in 2018, Kim Jong Un agreed to denuclearise, but has since stepped up the pace of missile development. Even North Korea's obsolescent conventional force is dangerous due to its size. It also has biological and chemical weapons capability, proven during the assassination of Kim's half-brother with VX nerve agent.Deeply buried facilities and tunnels to withstand bombardments and hide war material. The air force is outdated and the pilots only have basic proficiency. Electronic warfare and cyber warfare will be one of its key fighting domain.
North Korea--Military Capability--Modernisation
