Germany and North Korea are accessible by land to hostile powers, so their situation is very different.
A guy in a trench with a $25,000 electro-optical/thermal MANPAD can now snipe a $100+ million dollar 5th gen stealth fighter flying low and fast.
To decapitate a government you'd just need a roughly $500 drone you can make at home and some homemade explosives. Bonus points if you harden it from electronic attack and use INS and optical terrain recognition for navigation and image analysis for final targeting.

It's a weird time.
Russia is a nuclear power, I’m not sure if they’ve missed the moment or the fact so much was spent on its upkeep it was a magnet for corruption and all the rocket fuel has been replaced with pipe cleaner.
The thing that really annoys me is there’s lots of great Russian people, and Putin has herded them off of a cliff. Where does Russia go from here, or can Russia go?
A myriad of warlords? The Russian East disintegrates and China comes in to reclaim the land Russia took after the Boxer Rebellion 150 years ago?
