Its not that hard to knock out a couple, LGB into the casemate will do it. The problem is they have several thousand of them built into solid granite. Normal counter battery fire wont be very effective and JDAM's might not be accurate enough. EFOGM ould be ideal for the job, but we'd never buy enough of them for it to be practical and the missiles too expensive to be used that way. Course it probably costs more then the North's tanks as well. Netfires should be cheaper, though I doubt north Korea will still be around by the time it enters service.Vympel wrote: You're the *last* person I'd expect to spout such a myth, Shep. Shame on you. A small percentage of the largest calibre guns and multiple rocket launch systems have the range to hit Seoul- the rest don't- not to mention North Korea's SRBM forces should be more worrisome than it's artillery pieces. If anything, I suspect those fancy bunkers they North Koreans have built to protect their big guns would be knocked out in short order at the start of a conflict.
However since most Northern guns have ranges of about 18 kilometers or less if they wanted to launch a ground invasion, fat fucking chance, they'd have to displaced forward very quickly. While a lot of there guns are SP, most of those are simply open mounts dropped onto old tank chassis and thus easily destroyed via MLRS kill everything in the grid square attacks.
Well if we listen to G2.mil then all those 85 and 100mm AAA pieces are in fact extremely deadly air defence systems that no jet could survive against. Though they do have a lot of SA-2 sites, and that weapon still brought down quite a few aircraft in the Gulf War.
They have no respectable air defense to speak of- far worse than Iraq's both in terms of C3I and 'sharp end' weaponry. AA guns? Please.
Your clearly now aware of the stupidity of g2.mil, those weapons are almost completely useless. They can't hurt a B-52 in broad daylight, let alone any form of tactical aircraft.
