North Korean soldiers are proving to be extremely effective. They are even effective against FPV drones. North Koreans come out against the drones in groups of 3, where one of the soldiers acts as bait to let the other two destroy the drone.
They are stoic and indifferent to losses. Once wounded, they blow themselves up, blow their comrades up to avoid being taken prisoners. Zero interest in recovering and burying the bodies of their fallen.
They are getting live training, live experience, and they’ll go back to pass it on.
Moscow aided North Korea during the Korean War by supplying weapons and pilots. Now, decades later, history seems to have come full circle as North Korean soldiers find themselves in a different theater of war.
North Korean soldiers have been deployed on the frontlines in Ukraine, alongside Russian forces. These troops are far from mere “cannon fodder.” Ukrainian soldiers have noted that they are skilled fighters, and their presence adds an interesting twist to the conflict.
Ukraine claims to have recovered a note from a slain North Korean soldier detailing how to neutralize attack drones. The strategy involves using soldiers as “bait” to draw in the drones, presumably allowing other forces to engage them effectively.

3 soldiers vs 1 drone doesn’t seem like great odds. Just mass produce 100 million drones (if you can still do manufacturing) and see how useful they are.

Ukraine has advanced drone warfare like nobody previously. NATO should start learning but all they do is waste American money on bureaucratic crap.
