The little I know about the Korean war is; The North attacked South and they were initially successful. The North Korean offensive was halted around the bridgehead around the port city Pusan (southeast of South Korea) The allied launched a counter offensive and conducted an amphibian assault at, I will spell this wrong, Itiun. It doesn't matter much, they landed west of Seoul. The Allied offensive continued across the North/South border. When they approached the Chinese border, the Chinese got pissed about it and intervened in the war. The Chinese/North Korean forces pushed the allied back to more or less where the border is today. After that, the war turned into something that reminds of the First World War

I have found something about the Korean war. The majority of the weapons were from the Second World War. I assume they were updated. That's not case for what happened in the air. Both sides had fighter jets. The Americans had the Sabre and the NK/China had MIG-15 and MIG-17. The Americans may had a jet bomber too. I'm thinking about a bomber plane, but I don't remember what it was called |

Shall we ask Red about moving the Korean war part of this thread to the modern war section? Norway had its National Day the 17th this month so he might have a hangover still |
