The North Koreans must feel like the Paradis Eldians felt in AoT when they discovered the outside world was at least 100 years in the future technology and society wise

A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

I don't think russia is that much more advanced than north korea xD
I meant when they encounter the western weapons but touché
I tell people my salary all the time... Can we stop with this bullshit?
Collective bargaining powahh!
Ok, what is it then?
Mine’s £40k. Could be better, could be worse.
In GBP I'm at 33k. Not great.
I too want this information.
But nobody asked.
North Koreans right now
Edit: just noticed the duplicate word. I'm leaving it. Not like the guys on the front line are going to be able to read it anyways.
They may have had the potential to be a superpower, but it's apparent that they never had the leadership to conduct as one. Those inside the Kremlin bought into their own bullshit and thought of themselves as a superpower, not realising the machine within is operating on unlubricated, old, broken, and missing parts.
This seems to be a common theme with countries that feed a superiority narrative to their people and other nations.

begins sweating profusely
Oh, we have the military superpower. We're constantly putting it on display. We're basically a giant weapons and war factory. When we go down, it won't come from the outside (except in the form of cyber attacks and misinformation campaigns).
Though I could see it in a few decades. Russia was a powerful body full of rot. We're a powerful body with an infection. If the authoritarians win, they'll replace competent people in key positions with unqualified party-loyal yes men, and that will start the rot.
You're talking about the USA right? Because nobody mentioned the USA.
where antibiotics
They are loaded into magazines.
Oh, they were a superpower as the USSR. Propping up friendly governments, supplying coups, ratfucking around where more blatant impositions wouldn't be tolerated. It was just built on a house of cards and when it imploded it imploded big.
Comrade, we just invite NK troops over for tea time and potato. What is big deal?
NK troops: Potato?!!?!!!!
This sub is getting juicy
Gotta feed that meat grinder.
THE CUBE DEMANDS MEAT
3 years
Strictly speaking, 2 years, 8 months, and 24 days, or 998 days. We're just under the 1000 day mark, though.
!remindme 2 days
I thought with all the sanctions they'd run out of equipment before meat
They just use more meat when adequate equipment lacks. See golfcarts, motorcycle attacks instead of using a bmp or some infantry fighting vehicle for example. No protection means higher losses. Also their tanks are older and older.
The sanctions help with making new hi-tech, and upgrading old stuff, what they do is just refurbishing old tanks and btrs (and building a handfull of each each month) but they're scraping the bottom of the soviet stockpile as we're speaking.
Maybe they will run out a month from now, we'll see.
