anyway, it was an ikan bilis of a warship plus only 46 goons died, no big deal lah !
no point going to war for 46 goons anyway mah !
if the NKoreans killed the entire SKorean football team then maybe go to war lah !
anyway, the stupid sampan-warship look so top-heavy, it would have sunk in rough seas anyway !
Aren't u supposed to be dead?

I would not be surprised if North Korea kena kicked out of the World Cup without even touching the ball due to UN sanctions.

i think they still want NK to come to the table and talk about Nuke.....if you look at it they are still sort of at war....so sinking one ship to tie to score with SK....

True, true ...but with China sort of hand tight with her own domestic economy problems and the rest of the majors power occupied with the financial problems emerged from Europe. I would not be surprised if North Korea to come out with more aggressive confrontations as to distract her people from economic hardship and of course to obtain more aids from the world, examples like" Should South Korea to attack us, we shall not hesitate to use our nuclear arsenal" stuff.

it is possible that they might start some sort of small scale fight to show their aggressiveness knowing the rest of the world won't want a "War" to achieve certain domestics political unification and justification to hold 7 million folks in arm.
But ultimately it is dangerous to preconceive ideals about the other will and will not do....
A quote from Brooke Popham's
"I had a good close-up, across the barbed wire, of various sub-human specimens dressed in dirty grey uniform, which i was informed were Japanese soldiers,' if these represent the average of the Japanese army,the problem of their food and accommodation would be simple, but i cannot believe they would form an intelligent fighting force. " pg 43

that the pt bro.
it is call politics.
this tactics has been master by mao in china, stalin of the old soviet.
just think logically, NK has nothing to lose by shooting the corvettes. what else can the UN do? in fact, it could lead the UN to bring the NK back to negotiating table and KIM can make his demands.
win and win for NK, lose and lose for the SK
btw, corevetts aint sampa as someone mention. singapore has 6 of them.
it is pretty damn good vessels.
RSN Corvettes are pretty damn good vessels save the fact that they can also be easily sunk by a submarine launched torpedo if they & RSN do not have adequate anti sub capabilities and if crew gets evn a little complacent.

they better don't kick out NKorea !!!!!!

Brazil will win by 7-0 at least
then Portugal win by 6-0 at least
and Ivory Coast win by 5-0 at least
so bet at S'porepools must give ball...............give 3.5 also can !!!!!

those corvettes are only slightly better than sampans lah !!!
a big wave will capsize them already !!!!
lucky for them they don't go out to the big oceans, otherwise they long ago go belly-up already !!!!

singapore corvettes are arm with 6 torpedoes tube, up to 8 harpoon missles, , big gun of 75mm( i think). anti missles/aircraft missles, and a sonar for detecting submarine.
however corvettes are not meant to fight anti submarine warfare alone. that is why we need submarine.
ASromanistica...2 word summarise you.
talk cock!
sampan however heavily armed still sampan lah !!!
go to sea, got big wave only will capsize !!!
75 mm gun also consider big ah ????
a tank is so small also got much bigger gun liao !!!
lucky the sea here got no icebergs otherwise early early like Titanic already !!!
Titanic so big kana iceberg also sink, S'pore corvettes hit ice-CUBE i think also capsize !
If a 76mm gun with a firing rate of 2 rds per sec is not enough firpower without unbalancing a vessel our size then wat is?
Anyway is it possible tat quite a portion of e torp tat is said 2 have sunk e ship seem intact? Shouldnt most if not all of e torp be destroyed? Any1 has any expertise in this?
aiyah, 2 rds per second ah !!!!
also no use lah, if you can't damage the bigger enemy ship with so small round, let you hit the enemy with 1000 rds also no use what !
RSN corvettes can only bully those pirates in small fishing boats or sampans
When r modern warships armored? N if u like sampans so much go sink yourself in a sampan!

the cannon is used for closed quarter fighting.....recall the Sri Langka were using their boat cannon and gun to fight off Tamil Tigers sucide squard. Also the cannon are also used for firing onshore.
but this thread is about the sunken ship off Sk/NK border

Read an article that mention the Torp exploded before impact....that allow maximum punch on the hull.
Is that what you are asking?
Wat i wat 2 know is how much of e torp will survive
i supposed the Poker Game between NK and SK is going on and let see who "blink" first.
I wonder if we might see limited strike from NK?
sure war one, why leh ?
after NKorea kana blasted to pieces by Brazil, Portugal and Ivory Coast..............the SKoreans will laugh their heads off so go to war lor !!!!
