The main theme of negotiations was, suggested that the purchase of shells for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, while Pyongyang could be interested in obtaining food and military technologies. Experts have analyzed the North Korea military-industrial complex and compared it with the weapons that Ukraine receives from partners. About it writes the edition of The Moscow Times.
The publication was first quoted by a Ukrainian fighter, who said a few words in the break between the battles on the front line in Ukraine. He stated that the Archivers of the Armed Forces make 3-5 thousand shots from American M777 guns. The man emphasized that no army in the world can take experience of working with such equipment, which produces high -precision shells on the positions of the enemy.
The Moscow Times collected several weapons experts and explored North Korea - which Russia can oppose M777. Analysts claim that the DPRK does have a sufficiently developed MIC to supply the shells of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation of caliber 122 and 152, which are suitable for weapons of the USSR. In addition to the shells, the DPRK is able to provide anti -tank missiles in Russia, - explains Moscow Times.
In total, in the Arsenal of the North Korean Army there are, for example, 10 thousand gun creatures of 100 mm caliber. "It is more guns than all NATO countries combined," Simon Vesemanan, a researcher at the Stockholm International Institute for Peace Problems (Sipri). In addition to 10 thousand trunks, North Korea has 1 million shells in warehouses. In addition, Pyongyang is ready to increase the amount of arsenal available.
An expert at the Korean Institute of National Unity of the Chon Minm explained that there are 100 military plants in the DPRK, where 10 thousand began the construction of a new plant. It is officially said that it will produce electronics, and in fact - powder and shells. However, in this case, you should not pay attention to the quantity, but the quality. "There are many guns compatible with North Korean ammunition in Russia. What North Korea cannot give is reasonable ammunition.
It produces mostly good old, dumb, unmanaged," Vezeman said. The publication provides certain figures about the costs of projectiles. In particular, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation consumes up to 30 thousand shells during the day (ie almost 1 million per month). In turn, the Armed Forces consume 5 thousand shells (ie up to 150 thousand units per month). There is an obvious difference in quantity: Russia seems to be six times the advantage.
However, it is worth paying attention to the accuracy, range and "reasonable" of Ukrainian shells obtained from the West - they outweigh the shells, which the Russian Federation either received from the USSR, or still stampes. Or now gets from the DPRK. Instead, Ukraine can get a kind of bonus, suggests a professor of strategic research of the University of St. Endrus Phillips O'Brien. The professor mentioned South Korea.
Earlier, South Korea, which is one of the world leaders in the production of weapons, has not connected to the help of Ukraine. However, after entering the DPRK's game, the situation may change. We remind you that the spokesman of the Eastern Command Ilya Yevlash told about the successful elaboration of the Armed Forces on the Kupyansko-Liman shade of the front. In particular, more than ten units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation were able to destroy 100 km during the day.
