South Korea’s government may be looking to acquire nuclear-powered submarines, a possible response to North Korea’s development of submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLMBs), UPI reported.
Seoul is mulling purchasing hunter-killer nuke submarines that would offer a stronger deterrent to a sub-based nuclear attack from the North, UPI said, quoting a story that appeared in the South Korean newspaper Maeil Business.
The Maeil article noted that the current US THAAD anti-missile system in South Korea is focused on North Korean land-based missiles and would have trouble detecting submarine-launched attacks at sea. The same is true of existing South Korean early-warning radar systems, the newspaper said.
South Korean nuke subs, according to the story, would be able to stay submerged for long periods and would be highly maneuverable. They could lay in wait for North Korean submarines stealing from their bases to launch missile attacks on the South.
So all the fuss is about US wants to dump a nuke submarine on South Korea fearing North Korea. Uncle Sam is a master of strategic selling.
South Korea sells tonnes of electronic gadgets to America has a heavily favourable Balance of Payment to compensate America will sell just one Nuke submarine which may never be used in a wartime.
Every human in every country should have the right to live peacefully without fear of Nuclear war. This includes people in North Korea, South Korea, Japan and USA.
The answer is not, to have Nuclear Wepons to destroy each other, The answer is to respect each other and live Peacefully.
We all know how Nuclear Bombs destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War 2.
We have to learn from that before planning to have Nuclear Bombs
north korea development of submarine launched ballistic missiles i maney maney thanks
@Fernando, that was Atom Bomb.
do you think USA will sell nuclear submarine? I dont think so. Perhaps what south korea can do is to build one

Yes, but the main point in my comment was that developing Nuclear bombs is not the answer, we have to respect each other and live peacefully.
What happens if both sides of the conflict started using Wepons of Mass Destruction(WMD) if both sides have it.
Nuclear war is not a good thing it will destroy everything.
I think Citizens of USA, North Korea, South Korea and Japan have the right to Live Peacefully without the fear of War
Peace can be achived by respecting each other and not by developing Nuclear Wepons, otherwise if anyone use Nuclear wepons it will destroy everyone
I would like to edge the two presidents to be extra deplomatic and use their attained degrees to reason amicably as head of states this is not a joke but suicidal to both countries including us the spectators
Dilruhan Fernando
I agree with what you have mentioned
any conflict or War will destroy everyone if both sides use Nuclear Weapons
The only answer is to Discuss and find solutions to any problem and Respect each other
North Korean leader is playing the ignoramus. How does he think that South Korea and Japan don’t already have the capability for self-defense? How does he know that America is not ahead and on top of the rhetorics. I strongly think that he has threat as the greatest weapon of balance of power.
I agreed with u. We don’t need all this nuclear and missile, because we can only destroy our self and our properties
Dilruhan Fernando
I also agree with you, both sides should discuss and find solutions to the problem without planning to have Nuclear Weapons.
Peace is what every citizen in every Country needs, not Nuclear War because war will destroy everyone
