I find it interesting that this whole thing seems to increasingly be turning into a live training exercise for various technologies and combat forces that haven’t seen practical use yet. If it continues I feel like it’ll render a ton of experience that otherwise would’ve never happened.
What I find interesting is that this might very well lead to a situation where NK effectively becomes a mercenary outfit for Russia. They don’t have that much in the way of exports but they have people.
