I dont really intend to post up anything radical here, I'm limited to Google. So if you guys could be so kind as to where to get the jucy bits, feel free to hit me up.

An Old NK Tub. If anyone can tell me what kind of boat it is, or if it is even North Korean, then it would be apreciated.

This is a very ineresting picture. The gun on the front turrent looks like a modified howitzer. It might function as a glorified version of the PT boat US used in vietnam war.:roll: , but I don't know. I imagine it would be more useful for fire support mission, but with only one gun? you need a hella lot of boat to get the job done!

Sorry to breake your illusion but that ship has nothing to do with norht-korea...

It's Soviet project 1204 Shmel class river patrolboat. The "modified" howitser is actually the turret from PT-76 light amph. tank and fields the same 76mm cannon...

Well, no need to get snippy. It was listed as a North Korean boat, and it was under a diffrerent language so I could not access it.

Pictures of the North Korean armed forces are harder to find than I thought they would be, give me a break here.

He's just correcting you on what you've found here. Who knows if Russia gave DPRK some of these? I hope this is clear enough. OK? ;)

[Gollevainen]

No proplems, i didn't mean to sound too picky...just that you are not the first one mistaking this boat for Norht-korean one...I've have to correct it several times before this...

I apologize, that was a particuarly snotty day for me and a particuarly snotty response. Again, apologies.
