That should make South Korea feel better, right? Or is there suspicion that the Norks feel they have replaced their artillery threat with something more effective, rendering those shells surplus?
Definitely seems like a good time to be in the munitions industry.

But nukes now fill that role, allowing the artillery stockpile to be used as a currency with Russia.
