Has anyone ever thought of buying surplus 155 mm howitzer shells from the Norks? O contracting with them to make them for the Ukes? NK could probably use the hard currency from such a deal. I wonder what their build quality is and how many they have?

I’m thinking outside the box here. And I don’t even know if we buy anything from the Norks now. But since we cannot seem or want to step up the pace of making more shells and faster for the Ukes, why not consider it? Hell, the howitzers too! we then sell them to the Europeans NATO and they give them to the Ukes. Match Russia shell for shell. That’s never happened yet in this invasion. Might make a difference in negotiating leverage?

South Korea makes NATO 155, North Korea is fighting alongside their ally Russia in Europe and supplying them with Russian calibers, which is what North Korea uses.

Russia has been using North Korea for that - supplying North Korean produced artillery ammunition to Russia.
