    You are grossly underestimating the difficulty of dealing with a saturation attack, much less a sustained one. That sort of attack would likely almost certainly overwhelm the defensive resources of Guam with a couple CVBGs parked offshore.

      How so? The only reason they’re so deadly in Ukraine is because they don’t have the resources to adequately defend the huge front and they can’t invest sufficiently to produce a scalable defense.

      By the time NK is able to field enough drones for anything close to saturation, SK would have stockpiled more than enough defensive options.

      Only 150 or so Gepards have been sent to Ukraine. SK can build their own mobile AAA and can likely have thousands by the time NK has hundreds of drones.
