The South Korean Army plans to deploy surface-to-surface missiles in a newly created counter-artillery brigade by October, with the aim of destroying North Korea’s hardened long-range artillery sites near the Demilitarized Zone, should conflict erupt on the Korean Peninsula.
I suspect the North Koreans will be clever enough to avoid the rapid destruction of their threat to Seoul and that South Korean troops will need to carve out a no-launch zone north of the DMZ to protect Seoul from artillery fire.
Will South Korea be the first to make standing on the ground to keep that ground from being used to kill you an obsolete method of war?
