Geroman Forwarded from 🇦🇺#AussieCossack🇷🇺 ❗️North Korea has been preparing for a Ukraine style war for decades stockpiling one of the worlds largest caches of artillery rounds, MLRS rockets all compatible for use in Russian systems.
✅The long-range 170-mm self-propelled artillery units M-1989 Koksan which can launch conventional high-explosive fragmentation ammunition up to 40 km, and active-reactive ammunition up to 60 km.
✅The 240 mm North Korean M1985 / M1991 MLRS launches rockets at a distance of at least 65,000 meters.
✅The 600-mm KN-25 MLRS of “super-large caliber”. These missiles fly about 380 kilometers and reached an altitude of 97 kilometers. The weight of the rocket is 3 tons.
👍But most importantly, unlike Ukraine and the Russian Federation, there is no corruption in North Korea.
🇰🇵That’s why Kim Jung Un has enough shells, rockets & rounds stored in his warehouses to arm an army of 8 millon men.
In comparison, before February 2022 the armies of the Russian Federation and Ukraine combined had enough rounds in storage to arm only 4.5 million men.
💥80% of the casualties in the Ukraine conflict are caused by artillery & MLRS rockets which North Korea can easily transfer to the frontline via the Trans-Siberian Railway.
☢In short, Russia's swaps space, aviation, nuclear submarine & ICBM technology in exchange for a unlimited 'all you can eat' access to North Korea's huge stockpiles.
🇺🇸🇦🇺🇩🇪🇬🇧 The West arms Ukraine with Vietnam era junk weapons and cardboard drones. Russia quietly responds by arming North Korea with all the military technology on Kim Jung Un's wish list.
🤬This is a huge geopolitical and diplomatic failure on the part of the AUKUS alliance.
🫵Putin warned the West to stop arming Ukraine. Now the West gets a taste of their own medicine.

That’s great collab.
Let's hope things get moving soon. This will soon have taken half the time WWII took with the front line barely moving in the last year.
It's a brilliant move on Putin's part. NK has been sitting on massive stockpiles for decades and the longer it sits the less reliable or relevant much of it becomes. They need to modernize and Putin needs tons of cheap weapons.
