Inside North Korea’s Alligator Hub: Bypassing the US Navy Surface Fleet (Full Process)

Step inside the covert naval shipyards of North Korea’s East Sea fleet and examine the massive hull modifications indicative of the "Alligator" program—a hybrid amphibious concept designed to challenge naval dominance. This full-process documentary explores why analysts draw comparisons to the Soviet-era Project 1171 "Alligator" landing ships—not as a claim of direct duplication, but as a way to interpret Pyongyang’s intent to merge heavy-lift transport with submersible stealth capabilities. Rather than explaining the engineering mechanics of nuclear propulsion or hull pressurization, the film focuses on the strategic objective of this vessel: bypassing the formidable U.S. Navy surface fleet to deliver armored vehicles and special forces directly to hostile coastlines. We investigate what satellite indicators prompted closer scrutiny of the Sinpo shipyards and how the capability signal of a "submersible invasion force" is assessed versus demonstrative propaganda models. Through an evidence-based lens, the documentary explains why naval strategists in the United States reacted strongly to this asymmetric threat. It analyzes how such a parallel affects coastal deterrence debates—specifically the vulnerability of the U.S. West Coast and Hawaii—and what uncertainties remain regarding the vessel's acoustic signature. High-detail visuals and measured pacing help viewers separate verified naval expansion from theoretical projections—clarifying exactly what changed in the Pacific theater, why it surprised observers, and why it matters in today’s global security landscape.
