Even the much vaunted S-300. If you can't control the skys armor is toast. Forget about the KPAF, they have only about 35 Fulcrums in service, the rest are MiG 17-23. I wonder how many aces the blue team are going to have on day 1? Especally if the US commits Raptors out of Guam right off the bat.

I guess it would take at least 10 hours for the US for formulate and execute a plan in order to delay North Korean forces

If North Korea sneak attacks, than i guess it would take North Korea maybe 2 hours to break through (nor sure though) certain points on the South Korean fortifications.
After that maybe North Korean forces could advance 4-20km per hour.

Now i have made 2 assumptions that may not be correct:
because of the geographical location, i assumed that South Korea's defense line is a point defense system. and not defense in depth
also, i assumed if North Korea concentrates forces that focuse on penetrating certain portions on the defense line, North Korea could break through. Of course, this might not happen
