Air Force Combat Exercise

Recently, the situation on the Korean peninsula is turbulent, and the North Korean military recently held the largest air force combat exercise in history. 150 North Korean Air Force aircraft were dispatched to conduct large-scale flight training. The training subjects included bombing, ground attack, air supremacy, and command of large air fleet formations. The North Korean military MiG-29, MiG-23ML, MiG-21/J-7 and J-6, Il-28, and other types of military aircraft participated in the exercise.

At the same time as the North Korean Air Force held exercises, North Korean missiles also flew over Japan. Air defense alarms were sounded across Japan, and the range of North Korean missiles exceeded 4,000 kilometers. The Japanese side expressed serious concern about the missile launch by the North Korean army, but South Korea and the United States did not raise any obvious protests.

On the whole, the performance of the US, Japan, and South Korea's military exercises against the DORK is calm. In addition to Japan's horrified response to the missile launch by the North Korean army, neither the United States, Japan nor South Korea has raised a sharp protest against Maiman for the exercises held by the North Korean Air Force and other military operations by the North Korean army. It seems that the military exercises of the United States, Japan, and South, Korea against the North Korean army have nothing to say.

So why do the United States, Japan, and South Korea have nothing to say about the military exercises of the North Korean army?

First, the United States has been unable to come up with any way to deal with North Korea other than non-military means to sanction North Korea.

The United States, Japan, and South Korea have three options for the DORK. The first is to impose strict sanctions on the DORK, and non-military means to sanction the DORK. The second is to use military means to blow up the nuclear weapons of the North Korean army. The third is to reconcile with the DORK and recognize the Dork's status as a nuclear power.

The first option is what the U.S. is currently doing, and the second option is what the U.S. would like to do, but the U.S. has not done it at present. The third type is impossible for the United States to do. Once North Korea's status as nuclear power is recognized, the international status of the United States will seriously decline.

The United States once formulated a combat plan against North Korea, known as the 5027 combat plan, the core of which is that the United States and South Korea formed a coalition to attack the North Korean nuclear facilities using sneak attacks. However, this plan has never been implemented due to the high risk. At that time, the North Korean army did not have intercontinental missiles.

However, it is not an exaggeration to describe the current North Korean military as strong and strong. The North Korean military currently has 1,000 to 1,500 ballistic missiles of various types, including the Swansong-17 intercontinental missile with a range of more than 15,000 kilometers. According to U.S. estimates, the North Korean military has at most 60 nuclear warheads, but the North Korean military may have more nuclear warheads than the U.S. estimates. The US fights against the North Korean army, not to mention that the Russian army will retaliate against the US military.

If the United States does not dare to fight the North Korean army, then South Korea and Japan will not fight the North Korean army. Although Japan hates the DORK, the Japanese Self-Defense Forces currently cannot attack the DORK.

Therefore, the North Korean military is holding large-scale military exercises in China. When the United States mobilizes all the military forces in the Asia-Pacific region to defeat the North Korean military, the United States, Japan, and South Korea can only choose to acquiesce and have no other choice.

Second, in the future of northeast Asia, there may be a missile race and a nuclear weapons race, Northeast Asia will enter the peak of the Cold War in the 21st century, and South Korea may become Ukraine's second.

How should this be understood?

The DORK has developed various types of missiles, with more than 1,000 missiles. The North Korean military has many types of missiles, with connected ranges, and nuclear missiles to hit the mainland of the United States. What the United States can do is to comprehensively improve the self-defense capabilities of Japan and South Korea without directly sending troops to fight the North Korean army, and focus on building the ballistic missile combat forces of Japan and South Korea.

South Korea's current most advanced missile is the Xuanwu 2 missile, with a range of no more than 500 kilometers, which is really not enough for South Korea. Now that South Korea wants to join NATO, in addition to attacking the North Korean army, it also hits the Russian army's targets in Northeast Asia, which requires South Korea's missiles to have a range of at least 1,000 kilometers. In the next step, the South Korean army will develop ballistic missiles with a range of 1,000 kilometers under the encouragement of the United States, and it is not ruled out that the South Korean army will add nuclear weapons to its missiles.

Japan has now taken a key step in missiles. Japan will develop Type 12 cruise missiles with a range of 1,000 kilometers. These missiles can also hit the targets of the North Korean army.

We cannot rule out the possibility of Japan developing nuclear missiles and building ballistic missiles with a range of more than 2,000 kilometers.

In this way, as the United States acquiesced to South Korea and Japan to develop missiles with a range of more than 1,000 kilometers, the missile race in Northeast Asia began in full swing. The most terrifying thing here is that Japan restarted the development of nuclear weapons with the tacit approval of the United States. Japan believes that since the North Korean army has nuclear weapons, there is no doubt that Japan will develop nuclear weapons in the name of self-defense, and it is an understandable "legitimate behavior". In the beginning, Japan will conduct research on nuclear energy for military use under the name of "civil nuclear energy research", and develop small nuclear warheads that will not be discovered by the outside world. If Japan needs it, Japan will bundle a small nuclear warhead on its Type 12 cruise missile or a certain type of ballistic missile, or even an F15J fighter jet, and launch nuclear missiles directly at the target of the North Korean army.

Moreover, Japan's development of nuclear missiles will also target other countries in Asia, such as countries in Southeast Asia, and even Russia's the Far East.

As a result, the countries in Northeast Asia are caught in an extremely crazy missile race, which is very bad news for the development of the situation in Asia.

Moreover, the possibility of the North Korean army launching special military operations in the Far East cannot be ruled out.

Why do you say that?

The North Korean military exercise is the largest strategic offensive exercise in the history of the North Korean military. The North Korean military dispatched more than 150 aircraft to form a joint air campaign corps to attack enemy targets in multiple batches. The North Korean army fired missiles at Japan, and the North Korean army rocket launchers held firing exercises. These are all tactics that the North Korean army may use in future operations. Then the North Korean army launches missiles to block the Japanese and American military forces from the peninsula. The North Korean army can use the air force and army rocket artillery units, and mechanized infantry to launch a "special military operation" against South Korea. South Korea is very likely to become Ukraine. The second was attacked by the North Korean army.

But then again, is the large-scale military exercise of the DORK army willing to do so on its initiative? No, this is all forced by the United States. Before Trump and North Korean leaders signed an agreement, North Korea-US relations have eased. In the autumn military parade of the same year, the DORK did not display ICBMs. This shows that the DORK is peace-loving and does not want to fight. But the United States hysterically did not follow the agreement. Especially after Biden came to power, he continued to put pressure on the DORK, which made the DORK very uncomfortable.

By 2022, the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian war has made the DORK feel more threatened. The DORK is well aware that once the Russian army fails, the DORK will face greater pressure from the United States and South Korea. Therefore, the DORK firmly supports the actions of the Russian army, recognizes the independence of Donetsk and Lufthansa, and holds large-scale military parades and even military exercises to support Russia. In this military exercise, on the one hand, the North Korean army showed its military strength to the United States, Japan, and South Korea, and on the other hand, it used the exercise to show its support for Russia. If South Korea is too presumptuous with the support of the United States, the North Korean military exercise may become a special military operation, and the United States will not dare to attack the North Korean army.
