How far will inertial nav get them to a target?
They haven't shown off any nukes. They just did big booms underground.

They don't have any real guidance system.
They can't make a nuke that can fit on them.
They can't sustainably compost enough of their dead citizens to make fuel for the rockets.

Even the low-tech guidance systems required enourmous manufacturing skills that far exceed the papier-maché skills of NK.
Weird that you'd so easily consume their news clips as fact-based.
