I don't know why people are clowning this, pay 10M for one military grade truck or pay 10m for 200 civilian grade trucks that can have inherent camouflage...

Lol, Putin getting these delivered tonight!
This reminds me of that Russian parade a few months ago where they just rolled the same tank through a couple of times.
Reminds me of the game Mercenaries Playground of Destruction.
Where one faction had slick military vehicles, while another one had pickup trucks with gun turrets.
Flashy! Nothing says "We're super scary" quite like a hay tractor pulling a 1956 howitzer.
Hey, Putin! All this can be yours if the price is right!
They have capabilities to launch nuclear missiles at targets in the western US according to data from their last missile tests.
If this dumb ass actually gets into it with a real major power, the entire country will be turned into a lake of fire.
I feel very bad for the citizens.They do not want or deserve any of this.
Our military is certainly aware of it.
Perfect camoflauge.
Uh, have they tested those? That exhaust looks like it would burn up the truck and any unfired rockets.
Those Ron Deera tractors look real nice. Spacious cabs for when you need to cram your whole village in one to stay warm during the winter.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
North Korea celebrated its founding early Saturday in the capital with a military parade that included tractors pulling rocket launchers in front of visiting delegations from China and Russia, the Associated Press reported.
The parade emphasized the "militia" components of North Korea's military in an attempt to demonstrate the country's ability to beat back a foreign invasion.
Photos released by North Korean state media show rows of tractors towing what appear to be rocket launchers.
The parade also featured red dump trucks that were modified to hide missile launchers, an effort to signal "the militia's role as guerilla fighters in a war," according to Reuters.
No nuclear-capable weapons or intercontinental ballistic missiles appeared to be on display, in contrast with a July parade marking North Korea's "victory" in the 1950-53 war that cemented the division of the peninsula.
The country's Worker-Peasant Red Guards are believed to have more than 5 million members, The Korea Herald reported, citing a South Korean government estimate.
The original article contains 279 words, the summary contains 162 words. Saved 42%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Finally, a new sun rises on the Tankie World Powers, as westoids tremble in their foxholes
I sat reading the comments and nodding along and then realized that all this discourse is essentially 'poor country can't afford nice things '. I'd be really upset at someone that made fun of a person over the junker they drove because it was all they could afford.
How sad can you be if the "nice thing" they can't afford is rocket launchers
I mean, if folks were making fun of their housing I'd agree but this is the equipment they're buying to threaten their neighbors with, instead of feeding their starving population
This is more the shitty gun they bought to scare their neighbor. Also, their kids are skipping another meal.
Poor country can afford nice things, poor county instead spends money on crimes against humanity and propping up a monarchy.
If I had a poor neighbor that relied on me for food and financial support during hard times and then turned around and told everyone what a piece of shit I am and how much they're going to fuck me up next time they see me, and how much better their car is than mine? Yeah, I would call them out for their shitty ass car when they pulled it out of the driveway and the door was duct taped on. And I wouldn't really feel that bad about it.
Eh. It's sad how their military needs to do this when it sucks up so much money already.
If they just invested in their people instead of their war, north korea would be a much better place to live.
Never forget how there is literally only one fat person in the entire state, and that's their 'supreme leader.'
I want a Tonka version of this.
