Okinawa just recieved the first of 12 F-22 Raptor Steath fighter jets. What potential tactical position could this serve in regards to Russia's Putin's remarks towards the US and stalled talks with N Korea? Or is this a show for intimidation?

    Once North Korea fired those failed nuclear bombs in Japan's direction, Japan has the right to get any weapons from anywhere.

    As for Putin, he should shut up til he stops his "Stalinesque" tactics on his own people.

    For an attack on N.K. it could be useful but i think it may be their because the U.S. military is re-zoning its commands.

    I think it serves a very good tactical advantage as far as North Korea is concerned. the old ties between the old Soviet Union and North Korea have long been severed. North Korea was nothing more than a welfare state to the old Soviet Union. receiving foreign aid from them. I don't think the current Russian government would like to take on that role again, and if anything may want to sell weapons to them. But since North Korea is basically broke, it would have to be on a lend lease deal. people don't realize how bad off North Korea is financially. they can't sustain any type of war, and they really have no allies. as far as a nuclear threat, well you saw the great success of the missile launch, right into the ocean. I was stationed in South Korea twice, and I can tell you, North Korea attacking the south would be like a 11 year old kid fighting a grown man. in addition, all of South Korea is set up to stop any attack. all of the bridges are wired to blow. and all of the major roads have buffers built on the roads so they can be blown and block the roads. in addition, there are pre prepared fighting positions all over the country, concrete fighting positions that entire Brigades can move into, with pre positioned ammo dumps included!
