"Gerans" on Deployment
How might North Korea use the new drones?
A new report from a monitoring group shed light on cooperation between Russia and North Korea in the field of drone production. Whether the data is actually accurate remains unknown, but there's another interesting angle here.
The group includes representatives from South Korea, Japan and the USA. And they are likely far more concerned not with sanctions compliance — after all, if North Korea acquires drones from the "Geranium" series, it will deal another blow to the security of all three countries.
In Seoul, Tokyo and Washington, they understand that acquiring the same "Geran-5s" would give North Koreans even more capability to strike key targets in the region. The most vulnerable point, of course, is the completely exposed South Korean territory, but Japan could also take hits if things escalate.
