The deadly presence of a massively-oriented built-up of KPA arty positions can somewhat be viewed as a good testament to the recent desicion of US forces stationed within Korea to relocate their camps further to the rear to keep themselves out of the effective firing range of KPA arty positions.
Can’t you realise how it would be devastating to those forward-deployed around the DMZ? Once they opened firing almost simutaneously with little warning.
Futhermore, It’s not a matter of utilizing a combination of qualitatively superior tanks and helicopters and so on, but a string of nuke mine fields planted along the major routes of anticipated KPA drive into the south can be occured trying to keep their full drive south in check.
The top brass of US forces won’t let unnecessary friendly losses rise deciding to blow it up while a huge number of enemy tanks attempting to make a significant breach on the defensive line hastily ride over it.
I have a rather good feeling that it might give both of them a rise to a round of Nuclear bomb spamming or something like that.
They thus have to be supported by the powerful presence of US forces capable of exercising a strong nuclear deterrence over the enemy ambition to militarily conquer the southern part of the korean peninsula.
KPA Artillery would be quickly overwhelmed by South Korean counterbattery fire/air strikes.
The problem is, the only KPA artillery which has the range to bombard SK positions are old WWII/Cold War era models, they are immobile and are hidden, not to say horrendously inaccurate.
If they ever open fire, expect precision counterbattery fire to take them out instantly. I highly doubt any gun would go through 100 rounds before it is destroyed by counterbattery fire or airstrikes. Artillery is useless if immobile, unprotected, and inaccurate. The KPA cannot attempt a tank push, as SK would have control of the skies + CAS along with twice the number of more modern tanks.
South Korea has no problems defending themselves against North Korea.
