This is thirdie tier at this point. How is it possible to have this many fuck ups in only 7 months? What will the second half of the year

Competency crisis. Suktards edition.

How do you just forgot to tell anyone that you are going to fly over one of the most important bases in a volatile region?

Not even close, exagerationanon.

Japan should have shot it down

The chimpout would have been legendary

No amount of American tardwrangling would have stopped either country from bombing one another

Why is this news? This shit happens every day.

Anyone with an iq higher than 120 leaves for the north

chink/jeet/weeb spam.
actual tourists who don't know that accidents are fairly normal for militaries that actively train
this recent incident is pretty bad but the rest are normal.

Took you long enough to realize. Look at their military projects like the FA-50 block 20 or the KF-21, they operate like thirdies there as well by promising a lot of features but then never deliver and get stuck into not enough countries having bought into the dream (pyramid scheme) so there is not enought money to continue those projects into what was promised.

South Korea has a weird thing with Japan due to local politics from left wing politics who bring up "Japan bad, China good". The military is probably prohibited from talking to Japan about military activities.

Domestically, it will be treated as if Japan scrambled to intimidate.

Only if they'll have yet another political fuck-up to draw attention away from.
They are petty, but not That petty.

>>64032436
but they have political fuck ups around the clock.
they make Greece look like a competent and stable country

Always have been. Remember the Sewol sinking. the ROK coast guard told the USS Bonhomme Richard they had the situation in hand but instead they just watched it sink from alongside then only hours after asked for help. A casualty receiving ship with an intensive care ward and operating rooms plus a shitload of helicopters and amphibious craft aboard offed to help and was palmed off.

Japan also is an example of the oriental and his strange code of honor since they did the same thing with JAL 123. the US saw the aircraft disappear from primary radar and had troops ready in the helicopters to help but Japan insisted the JSDF were the first on scene.

Sounds fake. Most of what a pilot does is mess with radios, there’s no reason at all for the crew not using their radio in this situation.

The last person to defect to the North was a negroid soldier and the norks didn't want him.

Japan has a messed up culture to deal with in that they equally don't care about expanding their military but also need to show their public that they're not American puppets and can do everything on their own. Godzilla movies do a good job showing off this mentality, with the Japanese often scrambling to handle the threats in those movies before America steps in and nukes Tokyo or something.

Fun fact, despite having a notoriously shit work culture that literally works people to death their GDP is equivalent to Spain's, a country famous for being lazy. Worst Korea is such an odd place, frankly I'm not upset they're suffering a population collapse

>>64032776
Sounds like a pretty smart place.

>>64032793
Ah I should qualify, GDP per capita. But their national GDPs aren't too far off either

>>64030983 (OP)
So what's the verdict?
