520 _aNorth 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.
