Well, What aircraft will Kim use in his "nuclear response" to the joint excercises planned to happen in his bathtub? (Is that guy nuts, or what?)

That depends on whether he's still alive. Last I heard, some North Korea expert in Japan thinks that North Korea's unveiling of a bronze statue of the dictator means he may well have died.
Question is what aircraft are still operational? I'd like to see a swarm on An-2 Colts take to the skies, WW2 style.

AN-2s vs Predators. There's a mental image for you!
I hear they have a few Mig-29s, along with -21s, and SU-25s. I think they may have a few older MIGs an SUs, also.
I think the real danger is Seoul's vulnerability to the north's artillery.
There would be a ton of work for Warthogs and Vipers very close to Seoul, and the south would get to try out their Slam Eagles. I know nothing of the north's SAM system, but I'm sure they have lots.
And those midget subs would need to be dealt with.
Does anyone really think it will hit the fan? Or is this all just the usual rhetoric carried a bit further?

The usual, I think... at the most another missile test, but no aircraft.

I heard Kim Jong Il died months ago....
