Military expert compared the characteristics of missiles of the Russian Federation and North Korea.
Oleksandr Kovalenko, a military-political observer of the 'Information Resistance' group, stated that North Korean missiles have a greater warhead power than Russian ones, but lower engine performance and are intended for terror at short distances. He also noted that Ukraine needs more military assistance to ensure greater security. Russia is also seeking help from Iran and North Korea, as its own military-industrial complex cannot provide enough missiles.
North Korean missiles, which are based on Soviet or Russian developments, have greater range and warhead power, but lower accuracy and engine reliability. This limits their use for long-range attacks and makes them suitable for terror at short distances, especially along the front lines.
