The rockets are probably too unreliable to hit the USa, but the world's second biggest economy and the region's staunchest US ally is well within reach.

South Korea can be easily annihilated by conventional means, but Japan is a big fat nuke magnet. It's not like there will be any love lost in that little exchange. With Japan's constitution limiting its milliatry options and causing a enough confusion to let a sneaky missile evade the Patriot, Aegis and other anti missile systems, it's not unlikely that in the event of a "shootin' war" we'd see mushroom clouds over the land of the rising sun.

As a resident of greater Tokyo, it's not something I'd like to see. My dad said seeing the bones of his hand in front of his face off Montebello was pretty amazing, but I'll pass....
