Could South Korea Stop A North Korean Invasion?

Описание: North Korea maintains the world's fourth largest military with over one million active troops, thousands of artillery pieces aimed at Seoul, and nuclear weapons. South Korea faces an existential threat just 35 miles from its capital, where 10 million people live within range of North Korean guns. The Republic of Korea Armed Forces have built one of the world's most capable militaries specifically to deter and defeat invasion from the north.

This video covers every major vehicle South Korea has to defend itself against North Korean aggression:

Main Battle Tanks - K2 Black Panther, K1A2, K1A1
Infantry Fighting Vehicles - K21, K200

Attack Helicopters - AH-64E Apache Guardian, AH-1S Cobra, MD500 Defender
Utility Helicopters - UH-60 Black Hawk, Surion, CH-47 Chinook

Small Arms - K2 rifle, K1A1 carbine, K11 dual barrel, K3/K12 machine guns

South Korea has built a military focused on technological superiority rather than mass. They cannot match North Korea's numbers—North Korea fields over 500,000 active troops while South Korea maintains about 500,000. But the Republic of Korea has invested in quality over quantity, purchasing the most advanced American weapons and developing sophisticated indigenous systems. South Korea's strategy relies on advanced air defenses to intercept North Korean missiles, modern fighters and precision weapons to strike North Korean targets, and a powerful navy to control surrounding waters.

The Korean Peninsula remains one of the world's most dangerous flashpoints, with the potential for conflict that could draw in the United States, China, and Japan. South Korea's military exists to make invasion so costly that North Korea won't attempt it—and if deterrence fails, to defeat North Korean forces before they can capture Seoul.
