Dont forget stg45 wo never be used in berlin
I know there are tons more. I just believe the devs would 100% add an AK47 to Korea
British forces actually have participated during Invasion of Normandy, at Gold beach. And about ZH-29, Czechslovakian army was annexed by germany at 1938, all alsongside with their weapons. But did soviets participated in korean war? No.
It is completey different matter with StG45 or AS-44.
You have now reached:
“Hey, you cant know that! One of the soviet advisors probably had early production AK with him, both americans and brits tested FALs at the time too! That means what we can sell premium squads armed with them in our brand new Battle of Incheon campaign” - devs after Korea update reveal, probably
The British are not in this game in Normandy, only the US. And ZH29 is total 100% fantasy especially in Tunisia.
Infact I’d say an AK47 by an advisor in Korea or more likely than a ZH29 in Tunisia

Same for me they can use the excuse of the FN 1949 or the FN Fal for add him, because of the balance, like in moscow they can add the fedorov because of the mkb, or in tunisia the howel automatic rifle because of the MKB ecc…
Dev are simply human in this

I’m going to have to interject here, it was Stalins approval that caused Kim Il Sung to go ahead with the invasion in the first place, and the Russians supplied a crap ton of stuff to the North Koreans. Were there any AKs in that collection of stuff? Hard to say, but it is not out of the realm of possibility.

Soviet advisors and pilots participated in Korean war. And if we stretch it as far as ZH-29 reaching Afrika Korps instead of collecting dust in some Brno warehouse then they can have early Type 1 AK with them. Not arguing for any AK in hypothetical Korea update or anything, just explaining the logic
AS a korean I surely know that.
According to un-classified soviet documents and Researches, Stalin have refused 48 times Kim il-sung’s offer, and last have promised to send “Reserve supplies” to North korea. And by part of that North korea have built their factory producing PPSh and Mosin-nagant Rifle at Na-sung and Jang-Seunn, calling PPsh “Type 49”.
And alongside with those, 20 Recon Aircraft, 100 Fighters and 30 Bombers were sended.
There were non of Automatic rifles, I surely can say.
Check this article. Article by Mater illiazova Kymbat and Prof. Tae-kyun Park.
And also with this, Soviet advisors were sent to North Korea before May 20, and Stamped AK started its Actual Production at July and Adopted Officially by USSR.
Well I also know ZH-29 being at Afrika is Ridiculous, but this is more than that.
that’s just because of lazyness

Here is the thing though, despite the fact that official documents only say the 85mm T-34s were supplied to the North Koreans, the North Koreans somehow got their hands on the 76mm T-34s so those official documents sometimes don’t paint the full picture. Now is it likely that North Koreans had AK? Probably not, but it is most definitely in the realm of possibility. For this game, within the realm of possibility clears the historical accuracy bar set set by the devs.
You aren’t wrong
Cant be called lazyness because at that time there is no brithis faction, more a choice of developers for fill 40 level
According to Unclassified soviet documents, (1949 Meeting of Kim il sung and Stalin, march.) And as I said before, they actually said “Reserve supplies” among the support, So there of course could be old Reserves.
It is mostly far beyond realm of possibility. There is no Possibility of Soviet advisors brought AK to North korea since the Times dosen’t match, and Soviet Support to North korea ended Before 1951, The time when AKs First batch were tested only at Izhevsk, Moskva, and DDR region.
Also Soviet Advisors of North korea were from remnants of 53rd Army, which stayed at far east region since 1945.
Like the fedorov withaut her ammo, wait what we have in berlin?

I can’t understand that argument. At that time Czechoslovakia was annexed by Germany, and of course all weapons flowed into Germany. And I don’t understand why it’s a problem to have this on the Tunisian front, a front that the Germans were involved in.
The Zh-29 never reach service even with the Czech military, it was more so a proof of concept and was never produced en mass.

But at that time, North Korea did not use the ak series. As mentioned above, North Korea started using the ak series in 1959. The Chinese Army also started using it in 56 AD. And while I was looking around the museums in South Korea, I didn’t see any ak-47s captured during the Korean War.
