World War 3: US to unleash LASER GUNS, mini-nukes and ROBOTS against North Korea

As fears continue that Pyongyang might provoke World War 3, senior American military experts have warned revolutionary weaponry could be launched against the hermit kingdom.

According to The Sun, cutting-edge war drones worth billions of dollars would be deployed against Kim Jong-un’s army in the event of a conflict.

Called Lightning Strike drones, they can land on almost any terrain.

The weapons, still under development by Aurora Flight Sciences, could even carry soldiers for a land battle.

And the US Army could also use laser guns or unmanned tanks called Black Nights, designed by BAE Systems, in its fight against the despotic regime.

There is even the prospect of robot gun units being deployed to takeout the enemy.

Military chiefs in the US have also recommended using miniature nuclear weapons to target key areas of the country, despite the obvious risks.

The paper reported the bombs’ intensity can be controlled to cause as little or as much damage as commanders want.

If approved for production and successfully built, they could theoretically take out a specific town or complex but leave the rest of the country untouched.

The new weapons could be paid for from a planned $700 billion defence budget laid out for 2018 by Donald Trump and supported this week by US congressional defence committees.

Active troop levels are set to increase by 16,000 with plans to buy 90 stealthy F-35 fighter jets made by Lockheed Martin.

President Trump is currently on a tour of Asia as he seeks help to rein in the rogue state, which has caused global outrage with its missile launches.

He arrived in China today with the aim of convincing Beijing to take stronger action against its communist ally and trading partner.

Speaking in Seoul, Mr Trump used some of his toughest language yet against North Korea,a causing it of widespread human rights abuses. 

He called on countries around the world to isolate Pyongyang by denying it “any form of support, supply or acceptance.”

The President warned the regime: ”Do not underestimate us and do not try us.

Mr Trump said people were suffering in “gulags” and some bribed government officials to work as “slaves” overseas rather than live under the Pyongyang regime.
