While the DPRNK's navy is dangerous for those who venture close to shore, they are not that dangerous to those with a modern navy that can operate a few dozen miles from the coast, especially if they have air assets.
I would say that would not be effective against escorted convoys. Most have to travel surfaced (easily detected by air assets using IR or radar) for much of their patrol and they are loud by modern standards. However, they can be a very real threat to unescorted commerce vessels.
HI Sutton has some really good material.
Air assets 🤣
Americans
@amacca2085 why you so cringe?
a misslie force with precision ballistic and hypersonic missiles can be a match fr american navy especially 300 to 1,000 miles from the coast of NK can be neutralized, it makes better tactics and AI technology for NK to continue missile development for all theaters of war...

Uh.. What. SSB's would have less torpedo storage than SSK's. Ex: Golf vs Whiskey. Whiskey had 12, Golf had 6.
@@M16_Akula-III remove the SLMB launcher and convert the design to a conventional, attack sub. That’ll be fine.
Yeah.. I don't think they'll do it
You seem to have some misunderstandings:
-Submarines are mediocre surveillance platforms in the modern age. An E2C operator stated he detected the surface scarring from a Italian submarine periscope at 200 km. One can imagine how much better a radar would perform against a vintage design, or the post-processing capabilities of a more modern AWACS.
-The advertised top speed on a diesel-electric attack boat drains the battery extremely quickly, usually less than 2 hours on modern designs. This is why the low top speed on a smaller submarine, while still a drawback, is less concerning than you would think at first sight.
-India operates SSBNs but does not have MIRVs; they have not achieved Teller-Ullam staging and still rely on pure fission or boosted fission physics packages, which makes their nuclear devices fairly bulky for a given yield compared to thermonukes. India is reportedly behind Pakistan in terms of nuke miniaturization, and it seems entirely plausible that North Korea will achieve MIRV'd SLBM before India does.
-If China is involved, then the KPAN is completely unnecessary for cutting off supplies to South Korea; much of South Korea's port infrastructure is directly within range of Chinese rocketry, and then there's the potential for air/sea delivered naval mines, and it should be noted that the Western nations have fairly limited mine-clearing capacity compared to the Chinese ability to lay them.
-If China is not involved, then the ability of the KPAN to harass South Korean or Japanese shipping for any serious length of time is extremely dubious; I expect a SK/US/JPN coalition to effectively annihilate most KPAN units within 2 weeks.

If all you need is a very short range defensive force, they’re “ok”. Considering the restraints on their fuel reserves as well as training, they’re most likely far less powerful than you’re giving them credit for.
Depends on who you are. Are you Somolia? Yea they got a good navy. Are you the USA, more like what navy?

Right, cause this guy has chinas balls so deep in his throat he can’t even breathe. No bias though 😂
I am shocked at achievements, considering they did it under all the sanctions with no outside help. Their engineering and industrial capability is probably better than a lot of much richer countries.
But i am not a fan of their nukes.

Pukgeukseiong 1 has a very similar profile to the American Polaris missile. That is not to say it's a copy necessarily. It could be the dictates of the most efficient form fitted to underwater launching. Having been first worked out by the USA, this basic form would apply to all similar devices. This in the same way that certain modern bombers, the Soviet and U.S. space shuttles, diving bells, and other specialized performance tech have common shapes according to the demands of physics involved in the capability to be achieved.
.
I suppose it is a close copy of the U.S. made Polaris. It would make military sense for the DPRK to do so if able.
14:13 they also sold Scud missiles to Vietnam, not just midget subs.
and Vietnam's scud is aiming at China.🙃🙃
Recently they have gained access to Russia/Chines staging technology, allowing multi-stage true ICBMs now, all they need is a compact nuke that they can carry! 😅
Even ww2 subs are dangerous for merchant as well as for military ships,when shoot from point blank range
That's the thing, though. Those subs would NEVER get that close to our modern navy.

...Wow, can't believe people actually does no research on older Soviet torpedoes that still have guidance. Wake-homers and acoustics.
KPAN can certainly take advantage of nuclear-thermal-electric generators. It would be cheap and easy to do, and one such might let this machine power itself without reference to the batteries should she be at station-keeping or on the bottom. That leaves the full battery charge available for sudden demand. A larger RTG might power oxygen generators as well as carbon dioxide scrubbers to vastly extend the crew's underwater endurance.

Very accurate observation. The U$ attacked Libya only when Gaddafi surrendered his weapons. So Korea has made the right choice not to trust the U$ and have an adequate deterrence program instead.
That's not entirely accurate. While as far as we know, nukes weren't found in Iraq, chemical weapons were. I suppose it depends on what you consider a WMD
@@emacstac Chemical weapons were NOT found in Iraq. No matter what you call bleach, bleach is still bleach.
Not entirely true about countries that have or do not have nukes.

AND at the same time, destroyed a $250 million global hawk drones and the USA did NOTHING.
That was under Trump.
@@emacstac Not even close. US officials were adamant WMDs in Iraq were nukes.
Condoleezza Rice: “We don’t want the smoking gun (of Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction or WMD) to be a mushroom cloud.” (CNN 2002)
They have no capabilities to directly challenge the U.S-SK navies. But they still can conduct near-shore sea denial with their arsenal of midget/coastal subs, fast attack crafts, land-based anti-ship missiles and artilleries.
I mean, that’s enough to NK; the whole point of NK navy is to protect the coast and cover the flanks of the Army’s formations.
Not really, without air superiority, they all pretty much useless. They only have two effective deterrence strategy. 1, Nukes 2, China🤣
Indeed, similar to North Korea asymmetric strategy, it would be better for Taiwan to develop and build numerous modern coastal defence submarines, midget submarines, and indigenous torpedoes for coastal defense against amphibious operations. Imagine, a small navy consisting of 50+ coastal defence submarines, 10+ standard subs, 40+ fast missile boats, 50+ fast minelayer boats, etc can repel any amphibious landings.
@@nieljosephpalca7849mini subs and small ships are totally useless. because they are literally blind and deaf. all boat are static for missiles no matter how fast they are. same with subs.
Powerful Radars and sonars, thats why they need to be big, who detect first kills first.
@@commie5211 Useless? Modern coastal defence subs can be equiped with sensors and equipment relative to size such as periscope,sonars, etc. Plus they can be equipped/armed with heavy torpedoes which are capable of sinking enemy larger surface assets operating in coastal areas. Then when it comes to fast missile boats, they need some assistance from surveillance assets such as satellites from allied countries, surveillance radars, surveillance drones, and other assets. It seems that you forgot the combined arms strategy.
@@commie5211 HAHAH LOL🤣🫠🤣Hello, are you okay? I didn't say that fast missile boats can fire ballistic missiles. What I'm trying to say is fast missile boats need to coordinate with surveillance assets for targeting system. And by the way coastal defence subs are design to operate in shallow waters.

You never over estimate your oponen.

DPRK naval subs are noisy compared with modern production-can be located and interdicted
Nice video. Having a defensive navy seems fine
This is a fantastic site for information on the worlds warships and planes.
How dangerous are they? Depends on whether the torpedoes are guided or not.
As far as I know, they use older Soviet torpedoes. Still guided though. There's an incident where a SK Frigate was sunk by a torpedo in 2010(?).
@@M16_Akula-IIICHT-02D Torpedo. North Korea made, I believe it does maneuver not sure, launched by Yono class and exploded under the Corvette and split it in half. The remains where found and the ship was raised. NK denies involvement however an identical torpedo had previously been "found" and analysed.
@@user-lv7ph7hs7l Wow, looks similar to Soviet torps with their contra-rotating props.
@@M16_Akula-III Yeah I saw that, thought it was kinda cool. And it probably is some Soviet torp Made In DPRK with more locally sourced ingredients. But I haven't been mocking their tech for a while. More of a rocket guy and their current ICBM Hwasong-17 is an extremely impressive machine. It's way beyond bare minimum requirements. By copying a rather complicated and advanced Soviet engine and rocket they've taught themselves how to build some really fine rockets. Staged combustion engines as oposed to open loop engines for instance is something the West would never use on an ICBM. Barely any US orbital rockets have staged combustion engines and if they are made in Russia (RD170 on Atlas V, just retired, about 10 rockets left mostly launching made by Amazon Starlink (Kuiper).
They're SLBM's follow a more traditional approach with solid fuel rockets like Minuteman or Trident or the Space Shuttle boosters. We haven't used liquid fueled engines since Titan. The need to launch 25 Mt weapons went away and smaller systems with lighter payloads could do the job like Minuteman. It can do 3 x W76 or W88 or a few variants based on those two (100 kt and 500 kt respectively). I forget but I think about 1.5 ton payload, so it could put a decent satellite in orbit.
Russian land based ICBMs tend to be in the class of medium lift orbital launchers... 10-20 t payload on the latest monstrosity with expensive liquid closed cycle engines. It's mainly because of them we insisted on 10 warheads max per rocket in treaties. Some of them could carry 40 bombs in theory.
NK went the latter route. H15 was decently large, 100 t or so one dual nozzle engine based on RD250 (if I remember) and about a ton payload for ICBM range so about comparable to Minuteman in performance though of course it's handled like an orbital rocket with fueling procedures, engine ignition sequences etc... while solid booster are more of a light the fuse an run away type of deal. Not that good performance but it's a weapons system not a satellite launcher optimised for cost per kg to orbit.
H17 was a bit of a wake-up for some less rocket enthusiastic people in the West. 2 improved engines of the previous type, triple the weight (300 t) and about 3 t payload to Washington and beyond.
The last bomb they tested was pretty fancy too. So much so they shared images. We can estimate it weighs about 250 kg with a maximum of 500 kf but that would be absurdly heavy, it's not that big. Pretty tame fusion stage. Basically Made in glorious DPRK W76 but more low tech but more fusion fuel for a bigger bang. Fusion fuel is cheap as dirt, plutonium is expensive and an h bomb doesn't use anymore of that than a regular atom bomb.
So H17 can probably do 4-12 bombs each. Depending on wht the true performance of the rocket and weight of the warheads is. Plus reentry vehicles add some weight too. Probably 8 is reasonable. And countermeasures which are inflatable warheads painted to reflect radar like the real ones.
The Navy is far behind the rocket division but who knows what Putin might share for some 155 mm shells. Kim has enough of those to give each citizen one or two. Too bad they aren't edible.
@@user-lv7ph7hs7l How long did it took you to write this..? Also, I'm kind of betting it's either a SAET-50/60, SET-65K, or 53-65 copy. Those are older torps and I don't think any of the modern Soviet torps had been given to the NK's, due to the subs they bought doesn't have the right FC to use it. Which means it should not have wire-guidance.
Dumb question, at around 22:20 what ship is Kim Jong-Il is standing on to view Nanjin class frigate? That ship appears to have a couple of missile illuminators & appears much larger the Nanjin. Chinese cruiser? Destroyer?

It's still imppressive what they have on a shoestring budget. Just imagine if they were the worlds reserve currency
The DPRK navy has the capability to launch 24 Cruise missiles from its fleet that is A capability most nations which are far richer than North Korea don’t even have
What can you do with a submarine like this?
The NKN presents some serious maritime threats to other regional navies and commercial traffic. The NKN has torpedoes and mines which have proved to be problem for the ROKN (sinking a corvette) and the USN (damaging a frigate in the Persian Gulf). NKN antiship cruise missiles (ASCM) and short-range missiles present a credible threat as well. The inventories of NKN naval weapons are considerable with torpedoes and mines being a large fraction of the naval stockpile, but the missiles becoming a growing threat. While the mine warfare (MIW) portion of the NKN arsenal may appear to be obsolescent, the USN’s shrinking mine countermeasures capability is making it more vulnerable to offensive and defensive MIW. The failure of the USN to maintain a credible MCM capability worldwide makes the NKN a greater threat to US and allied naval forces operating near the DPRK.
They would be crunched in any military situation.
Didn't know Arnie was narrating UA-cam vids
Great insight... but you left out the variable that the Russian Pacific Fleet would augment them in the east.

The Yonos would make nifty yachts
Is it smaller than the UK ballistic missile subs too ? I think it is.
Yea of course, they aren't even nuclear powered. Vamguard class are 150 m long and 18000 t.
How much of there fleet is maintained.
This is one thing, I never see military analyst chat about.
But anyone who is served, the biggest part of the day is maintaining kit.
How much money does North Korea have to maintain what they have.
I am going to say, looking at there budget, there broken economy, and the fact, what they do have goes towards there nuclear arsenal, which is very expensive to maintain.
That there Navy is like there Airforce, for show at most.
It's dangerous to assume that they don't have money to maintain or build, since they are not part of the mainstream world economy no one really knows how much money the have and on the other hand they are still very much active on the black market supplying arm's and some mineral to other nations like them.

Can you imagine working on one of the beauties Poor sods
Their ships and subs are for suicide missions and are not expected to survive an engagement.
and its about to get even more dangerous, kim jong un has said he will focus on the navy for a good couple of years now, as that is the most outdated sector of its defense, say what you want about the airforce but that has already pretty much been fixed with their most recent request to Russia to buy quite a few dozen fighter jets from them, ones built after the USSR, so they're quite modern for today,
I didn't watch the entire video yet but north korea for example wants to build more of their most modern ships, the most recent ones, for example their latest submarines, and its most recent "modern" looking corvettes, (just saw it was in the video, talking about the Nampo), even develop new ones, and kim jong un even expressed interest in building a rather large cruiser, which i think will be the new pride of their surface navy, although expensive, something of the likes of a Russian cruiser, So expect it to be covered in Anti-Ship missile launchers
North Korea couldn’t even win a war on its home island.
I will not be surprised if Russia gives N Korea cavitation 240 knot torpedos that can reach S Korea, Japan and maybe Guam in exchange for military support. In Ancient days, N Korea would be offered a good chunk of Ukraine.

These midget submarines are build by ex yugoslavia license. I rember in 80s when usa aircraft carrier was in patrol in gate to jadran sea. Yugoslavia put that submarine on the bottom in deep sea. After usa ship passed they dive out and target carrier. Carrier did not detect them. That was just yugoslavian test also they get sonar and engine sound print of carrier.
The Yugoslav design coastal (SSC) and midget (SSM) submarines were some interesting designs. One feature of both types of submarines was the use of electric-only propulsion for the main drive. This appeared to be a backward step in submarine propulsion yet provided the Yugoslav Navy with much quieter small submarines. Other Yugoslav submarines of coastal and ASW types had standard diesel-electric propulsion systems but their designs were optimized for the Adriatic operational threat environment. The Iranian naval forces of both the IRIN and IRGCN also employ designs derived from the Yugoslav, Italian, and DPRK navies.
Similar to North Korea's asymmetric strategy, it would be better for Taiwan to approach to that kind of strategy. Taiwan can enhance its armed forces by developing and building littoral/shored defence assets such as modern coastal defence submarines, fast missile boats, fast minelayer boats, mobile shore-based anti-ship missile systems, aerial kamikaze drones, combat drones, surveillance drones, mobile artilleries (MLRS), decoys, and most importantly layer ground based-air defence systems.
Beautiful, let the arm building begin, from both side..
@@rs-dp6prWhat do you mean? One side is arming up, and the other side is slow to do so.
China should nuke Taiwan.
Based on the relationship between distance and national strength, it is extremely foolish for Taiwan to compete with China for military industrial productivity, especially drones. 90% of the world's drones are produced in China. According to a recent message from the US military to the US Congress, China's shipbuilding capacity is 232 times that of the United States. China's industrial production capacity accounts for 60% of global industrial production capacity.
Wdym? They'd bankrupt themselves if they want to compete with China's industrial might 😄
Do the North Korean use the windows on their submarines to look out for under water obstacles?
No, the windows on the upper forward section of the ROMEO Class SSK sail are to provide a place from which to conn the submarine while running on the surface. If you look carefully at the ROMEO Class sail you will see the protective shield for the periscopes, snorkel mast, and other sensor masts. This was done by Soviet submarine designers to protect those extensible masts against ice while a ROMEO was at periscope depth. The PRC-built Type 033 were considered by some naval analysts to be better than the Soviet-built boats.
The NK Navy is abysmal. No they do not represent a threat to anyone. Their command and control system is 1950, their submarines are absolutely antique, and the subs are more likely to kill their crews than damage anything else!
Even if they had up to date subs they would not be A treat to anyone. The are not a Aggressive Nation like the west.. if the west would stop going around the world stating wars and fix their own country's problems the world would be a better place.
I mean would you want to sail on a North Korea submarine 😮

I wonder if China or Russia would ever sell retired Kilo subs to North Korea in the future? but wait how could North Korea pay for them? a good economy is a key element for new naval acquisitions.

Much of this was in a talk creatively called "Bigger Bangs" where he presented Gnomon and "Sundial" the 10 Gigaton bomb. Most of it is unfortunately still classified.

This is all very interesting, great video! That said, Romeo & Sang-O submarines are so noisy we can hear them in San Francisco.

Its interesting that a country this poor would rather let its citizens starve in order to support a half assed sub fleet.
As you said, this fleet, save two or three serious boats, is more of a danger to itself than the more professional navies of South Korea, Japan Australia and the US. They can cause problems but likely at their own peril.
You've been brainwashed by western media. NK are not starving but due to American sanctions, they don't have fast food like McDonald's and KFC either. Which means they're not fat group of people like the West. If you use your intelligence, starving people do not produce anything. But North Korea produces a lot of weapons. They even have hypersonic missiles, something the Americans don't have.
