Korea Thread: Liberal Moon Jae In Elected

I'm also tactically concerned about these destroyers, I have to imagine the Norks have anti-ship missiles that we'd probably not be able to do much about.

Can't AEGIS destroyers shoot down antiship missiles? Isn't that their most important job?

[OttoVonBismarck]

The problem with all ABM is if it isn't 100% you're fucked if the enemy is launching a lot of missiles.

FWIW Aegis a broader scope weapons system, ABM is a component of the system that is very new and to my knowledge untested in combat. Other components like its offensive targetig system and Anti-Aircraft targeting system are older/more proven.

Didn't one shoot down an antiship missile fired from Yemen last year?

[OttoVonBismarck]

I thought that was the "point defense" tech that basically rapidly fires rounds into incoming and relatively slow moving missiles, my understanding is short range ballistic missiles in terminal velocity travel too quickly for that system to reliably acquire them, but the newer ABM component theoretically can. I could be wrong though, not a Naval guru by any means.

You gotta pay a higher bribe.

No shit. You Westerners can be so lost in an Eastern environment, like little babies

[Grinning_Colossus]

The trick is to not just come out and say "how about I bribe you, then?" You have to ask if there's some sort of fee that you can pay to expedite the process. Framing it that way lets them save face.

I dunno.  We'd have noticed if we upped our ground game in SK by now, and if things go full-scale, that means the ROK will be taking on the bulk of the burden this time around.  I wonder if they signed on to that possibility.

Yes.

It's not like the ROK has a massive and extensive pre-conflict mobilization process they need to go through. 

And besides, they're not filthy subhuman slavic Russians that need 3 months to cull together enough first echelon units to attack something like Georgia or be forced to use little green men because they simply do not possess the strength to deploy set piece units against someone that can bite back.

The ROK is in mid-season form.

She's lived there her entire life, she knows when and how much to offer. She offerrd a big one and they said it doesn't matter how much you give us, this document will take a long time.

It's Saturday morning in North Korea, and MSNBC was showing the live feed from the Norks assembling for Teh Big Parade.


Now, if 59 Tomahawks suddenly just show up on the parade grounds and over the leadership review stands, I would have to admit I would be immensely fucking impressed.

We could cum together.
