If they can put a missile together, even one that only flies a few miles ,and they can build a nuclear weapon, we have to assume they can figure a way into this thing.

Maybe it's a WWII leftover from the Japanese navy...... they probably based some stuff in Korea, which was under their control.......

......NKs competent enough to properly utilize simple hand tools.North Koreans were once competent enough to use hand tools, but lately it seems someone has eaten all the handles. For their sake, I hope this torpedo is ethanol-fueled, and that they all get a chance to suck on it. That could be as close to a national holiday as these poor bastards are ever likely to get.

I was thinking the same thing before I even saw the picture. Gilligan being chased around the camp by the torpedo with that great chase music playing. Loved it!

"The small vessel was captured during a reconnaissance mission in waters off North Korea's eastern city of Hamhung..." 
You've got to love President Bush! NK's Lil Kim must by now grasp the implications of a mine recon drone outside the port of Hamhung.
As in, you send in the recon drone *prior* to something more valuable/powerful/capable moving in.

In all honesty it does bear a fair resemblance to that mine hunting UUV from post 38. Other than that, I hain't never seen anytning quite like it.

Almost, but not quite:
"Some 1,500 North Koreans -- lured by the promise of a steamed dumpling each -- made daily visits to the Pueblo during a recent month-long, anti-U.S. rally period, and the government had its hands full preventing visitors from trying to eat everything in sight, said what was left of the newspaper.
Many North Koreans admitted that they thought
it was really Pueblo Colorado they were visiting and most hoped to get a US.Government booklet on how to escape communism.
There we go! Now its fixed.
