  South Korea should tell the US to fuck off and defend itself.
context: They better shoot down those drones. >
  
  Ukrainians use this little signal shooter to disable a UAV's rotors and bring it down to the ground. How does South Korea not have this tech yet? >
  
  Probably doesn't work real well you got skyscrapers in the way. >
  
  
  One drone traveled as far as the northern part of Seoul, South Korea's capital, about an hour's drive from the border
  
  The northern parts of Seoul proper (not even looking at Goyang or Yangju that are part of the Seoul metro region), is not even 20 miles from the border... Traffic might be a bitch to deal with, but damn who frames it like that? Even a DJI drone can cross that distance in like 5-10 minutes... >
  
  I mean, they said drive whereas the drones were flying. But also 20 miles shouldn't be more than like a 30 minute drive assuming the speed limit slows as you start getting into an urban area >
  
  You've obviously never driven in Korea. 20 miles SHOULD only be a 30min drive, bit it isn't there. An hour sounds about right. >
  
  Gonna go out on a limb and say 99% of Reddit has never driven in Korea but go ahead and make traffic sound like a foreign concept >
  
  Exactly what someone who never drove in Korea would say >
  
  Are we gatekeeping traffic? >
  
  Exactly what someone whose never gatekept anything would say >
  
  Is it gatekeeping all the way down? >
  
  Why warnings? They’re drones just do it >
  
  They kept missing, and crashed their own plane, so saying they were "warning shots" lets them preserve some dignity >
  
  South Korean military spokesman: We fired 8,000 successful warning shots using a minigun. >
  
  This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 63%. (I'm a bot)
  
  
  Lee said the South Korean military conducted a reconnaissance mission after the drones entered its airspace, with some assets crossing into North Korean territory and filming its military installations.
  The last time a North Korean drone entered South Korean airspace was five years ago, according to the South Korean military.
  North Korea has aggressively ramped up its missile tests this year, firing missiles on 36 separate days, the highest annual tally since Kim Jong Un took power in 2012, according to CNN. On Friday, South Korea said North Korea launched two short-range ballistic missiles, according to CNN..

  Why fire a "warning shot" at an unmanned drone? Just shoot the damn thing. If politically necessary, just say you honestly meant to miss it. >
  
  This thread filled up with North Korean warehouse bots faster than the drones made it to Seoul. >
  
  I assume it’s because North Korea is desperately upping weapon production in order to sell to Russia? >
  
  It's likely a Chinese drone resistant to electronic warfare. China and Russia are testing their tech against nato installations to probe for weaknesses. >
  
  Russia had to pay for those artillery shells somehow. >
  
  North Korea has drones now? I thought they were on the 60's >
  
  Their buddies, china and russia >
  
  I think Russia might need them for themselves at the moment >
  
  The ol don't forget about me from North Korea >
  
  Pleeeeease stop fucking reporting nk shit I'm sick of it. They're literally never gonna do anything so everyone needs to chill out >
  
  Oh no 👀 >
  
  They were doing this prior to 2016 and then Trump put a stop to this.
  It's crazy that were back at it again.
  Say what you want about Trump, but the North Korean issue was put to bed for years after the Trump meeting. >
  
  Warning shots and bad marksmanship look surprisingly similar. >
  
  This is embarrassing and they should get their act together asap >
  
  South Korean jet was destroyed trying to intercept, isn’t the airspace guarded by us air defences? Lol >
  
  So did they not hit any?  Can't even hit a north Korean drone?  Absolutely pathetic >
  
  Dude in the thumbnail waited 5 years for his time to shine
