[QUOTE=TheTalon;22146742]If they just decided to open up with all their artillery, sure
But what about aerial campaigns with bombs designed to specifically penetrate and hit what's inside the fortifications? We can put Magic Boom Boom Rocks within a couple meters of where ever we want to[/QUOTE]
But can the US military deploy its assets fast enough to stop an NK invasion before it can do some significant damage? Remember that it took [i]months[/i] for Coalition forces to be fully deployed in the Middle East during Desert Shield.

There's already 28,000 troops stationed in SK. Then you have all of the military bases in Japan. It wouldn't take us long at all to mobilize into SK.
[QUOTE=GunFox;22143350]I always forget that the patriot missile system is technically a SAM.
This is reinforced by the fact that the military pretty much agrees and employs them almost entirely for their ability to engage ballistic missiles.[/QUOTE]
Protip, a missile and a aircraft are the same thing according to Radar with a Missile just being harder to hit

And? That was in peace time where you need authorization and decide which units need to go where, in wartime you just deploy as much as possible in a short of time as possible
In fact the U.S. Department of Defense and Republic Of Korea Defense Ministry have approved a war plan where if North Korea attacks South Korea the U.S. will then deploy up to [B]690,000 Troops, 1600 (that's two zeros) Aircraft and deploy 130 Ships to Korea in 90 days[/B]

[QUOTE=GunFox;22145077]Not when you have a tank.[/QUOTE]
Tanks are shit in Korea, even Battlefield commanders at the beginning of the war said they were unneeded due to all the fucking Mountains limiting the effectiveness, look at Afghanistan, mountains mountains everywhere, the only people who have deployed heavy armor there are the Canadians in the one semi-flat province.
nothing will happen, NK is doing this just so they can get rewards later for being more cooperative
this is what they always do

That's [b]90[/b] days. The North Koreans won't stall their attack for 90 days to get their asses kicked.
The South Korean and US forces would need to find a way to delay hordes of NK conventional forces for at least that amount of time, and that's not counting the threat of NK special forces.
within 90 days I would assume.
Yes but it won't take 90 days until all these units arrive. In the first day some of them will arrive and same for the second day and the day after and each day more units will arrive.
