Abstract:
Does Kim Jong Un intend to deploy tactical nuclear weapons? If so, how might these weapons manifest in the country’s existing nuclear forces and what challenges may arise for the United States and South Korea? This article examines North Korean claims to date concerning TNWs, explores the practical implications of these capabilities for Pyongyang’s strategy, and argues that these weapons are likely to be a component of the country’s growing nuclear force. The introduction of TNWs into North Korea’s nuclear forces will have serious implications for escalation management on the Korean Peninsula and amplify the risk of nuclear use in a future conflict.
