If there is a war between North Korea and Ukraine, who will win? Kim Jong jumped into war and sent 8,000 soldiers to Russia

The United States claims that 8,000 North Korean soldiers are present on the border with Ukraine in support of Russia.

Now North Korea has also entered the war between Russia and Ukraine. The United States has claimed that between 8,000 and 10,000 North Korean troops are present near the border with Ukraine in support of Russia. At the same time, Ukraine claimed, citing its intelligence agency, that North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un had decided to send 11,000 troops to war on behalf of Russia. However, Russia has denied this and said it is capable of doing anything.

Now if North Korea has gone to war, then let’s know who is more powerful between their army and the Ukrainian army.

North Korea’s military is so big

Although North Korea faces millions of challenges and even food shortages, its army (the Korean People’s Army) is the fourth largest army in the world. North Korea has at least 1.3 million active troops. Apart from this, there are 76 lakh soldiers in reserve. This figure is 30 percent of North Korea’s total population. In North Korea, men have to serve in the military for at least eight to ten years and women for five years. This dictatorial country has 4,300 tanks, 8,800 cannons and 810 combat aircraft. Speaking of the Navy, it has 70 submarines.

First right over the country’s resources.

Under the military-first policy in North Korea, the military receives the majority of government resources, that is, a quarter of the gross domestic product (GDP). The army runs fishing, mining and trading companies and has an extensive network. After Kim Jong Un took power in North Korea, it has modernized a lot. North Korea has developed nuclear missiles. Today it also has an arsenal of 5,000 tons of chemical weapons. North Korea’s military also includes 6,800 hackers. These are trained in cyber warfare and can destroy the enemy’s computer network.

The soldiers sent to Russia are special.

South Korea has claimed that soldiers sent by North Korea to Russia are part of North Korea’s special operations force. This special operations force is one of the five branches of the North Korean military. These soldiers are especially skilled in offensive operations due to their training. These soldiers are deployed in units such as Lightning, Storm, and Thunderbolt. They are also trained as snipers.

The Ukrainian army is so powerful

There are 2-3 lakh active soldiers in the Ukrainian armed forces. Its reserve soldiers number nine lakhs and it is considered the fifth largest army in the world. This country has 2,596 war tanks. The number of armored military vehicles it owns is 12303. The Ukrainian army also includes 2040 cannons. Talking about the Air Force, Ukraine has 772 aircraft and 98 fighter aircraft. It also has 34 attack helicopters. The Ukrainian Navy has 38 ships. It doesn’t have any submarine. Ukraine’s total defense budget is $5.4 billion. However, since the Russian attack, Ukraine has been continuously expanding its military capabilities and is fighting bravely. The United States also has a weapons depot in Ukraine, from where other countries, as well as Ukraine, easily obtain weapons. Then the United States has also equipped it with combat aircraft such as the F-16.

The importance of drones is increasing in modern warfare and Ukraine is using them extensively against Russia. He has a special fleet of fire-breathing Dragon drones, which has wreaked havoc on the Russian military. Fire-breathing aircraft were used in the First and Second World Wars, which have now been replaced by these drones. These use molten thermite metal, which can burn anything.

NATO member countries are becoming stronger

NATO member countries, with which Russia rejects friendship with Ukraine and which in fact were the cause of the war, also support Ukraine. Even before the war with Russia began, NATO member countries the United States, Sweden, Britain, Turkey and other countries had sent weapons to Ukraine.

The United States had sent missiles and ammunition to Ukraine via warships and planes. It was also said that the US military had also trained the Ukrainian army in guerrilla warfare. Britain had sent a full arsenal of anti-aircraft and anti-tank missiles to Ukraine. Türkiye had provided 100 attack drones to boost Ukraine’s military capabilities. Many other countries, including Sweden and France, also provided enormous military assistance to Ukraine. This trend continued even during the war.
