North Korea Armed With Nuclear Weapons :-(
Because most of North Korea’s missile sites are located in the northernmost parts of North Korea, a U.S. strike would most likely occur by sea or by air.
By sea, the most sensible weapon would be what the Trump administration used to conduct strikes against Syria in April last year—the Tomahawk Land-Attack Cruise Missile, fired from one of the many surface ships the U.S. Navy has patrolling in international waters off North Korea’s coasts.
By air, the F-22 and F-35, flown in stealth mode, are the aircraft with the least risk of being shot down by North Korea’s network of surface-to-air missile sites.
Are North Korean radars, communications, or computer networks being jammed or disrupted?
Are North Korea’s “strategic assets”—which includes its missiles and nuclear facilities—being targeted?
Is a U.S. aircraft carrier strike group in the vicinity of the Korean Peninsula?
Are U.S. nuclear-capable bombers present in Korea or Japan?
Has there been a U.S. troop buildup in the region?
Do U.S. rhetorical statements accommodate the possibility of it launching war?
Are American civilians being evacuated from South Korea?
