North Korea runs out of shells, asks Russia to be rearmed.
They're probably sitting on warehouses of those things, they spend a ridiculous amount of their GDP on the military. They just want a better deal and the more disastrous the war becomes for Russia the more leverage they have
I can't imagine they're in great condition though.
Rumor is they often don’t work or blow up in the artillery.
Kim Jong-Ea-Nasir
I had to google that. That’s funny.
Aside from those 2 failure modes, they also suffer inconsistent propellant loading. Shells need to be perfectly consistent so you know exactly where they'll land. NK shells are a crapshoot.
It appears they have zero quality control.
The one thing I’ve Learned from Ukraine is how unprepared most countries are for war.

Probably "Eldest Son" sabotage...
Wait. NK has a GDP?
