@mason_8718 "Today the Republic of Korea Armed Forces Day ceremony was held. On this day a very small number of tactical operational and strategic strike missiles high-altitude interceptors tanks APC IFV rocket artillery and drones were displayed. The XK1 unmanned vehicle was also unveiled for the first time. President Lee Jae-myung stated that South Korea now possesses a formidable military and that large-scale defense investments centered on technological prowess will continue and that he will further support the defense industry. I see long-range Hyunmoo-III cruise missiles and Hyunmoo-IV-1 (or new II"

"The MCM another air-launched stealth cruise missile for the KF-21 has been unveiled. How many ROK Army Navy Air Force and Strategic Command missile do they want The MCM weighs 1000 lbs similar to the NSM/JSM and can be integrated on weapon bay. The LIG Nex1 is under development pictured between the IRST air-to-air missile and the larger K-ALCM long-range stealth CM. The LIG Nex1 is also developing a smart air-launched missile similar to the Spear-3 (KGGB-II). The MSM's overall performance is expected to be similar to the JSM. Recently mentioned strike missiles for the KF-21 include the K-ALCM"

"Orders confirmed. The Minister of National Defense said that the "next-generation" Hyunmoo missiles are being prepared and mass production and operation for the Hyunmoo-V are expected to begin soon. Compared to others South Korea rarely mentions the status of strategic weapons so this is a little bit unusual. News of a new variant of the Hyunmoo strategic missile is not particularly new as development is endless. This could be an II- III- IV- V- or VI"

"It's a sad fact for patriotic but similar Chinese rocket artillery systems haven't sold meaningfully anywhere. Even Middle Eastern countries use systems from Israel the United States and South Korea. China's Norinco previously lost a closed bidding to South Korea for an unknown Middle Eastern country. The CTM-ASBM doesn't have that kind of position. It's more like ER-GMLRS. For inquiries about weapon systems contracts and tenders please send me a DM message. Hardware Software Bidding Contracts etc"

"Well They're not like regular proximity fuses. South Korea's Hanwha designated the special warheads for the CTM-MR and XXX as LEW directly following the example of the US AW. The LEW warhead is a special warhead developed to reduce the use of sensitivity cluster weapons. KD Industries handles DP-ICM associated weapons"

"I've advocated for Poland to acquire the L-SAM high-altitude long-range interceptor system. Unless they're willing to acquire the expensive US THAAD system like Saudi Arabia. Since last year Hanwha has been showcasing anti-drone low-altitude medium-altitude and high-altitude air defense solutions in the Middle East and Europe. At MSPO they showcased not only the L-SAM but also the H-SHORAD Laser H-SHORAD Sky Light (laser) and the 40mm unmanned air defense systems. Poland already operates or is preparing medium-range SAMs so the H-SHORAD and L-SAM look promising. Few countries are developing"

"With the recent increasing number of large surface combatants and submarines being added to the S.Korean Navy manpower has become a major issue. First give the person who came up with this idea a raise. While Korea possesses numerous ships and subs it still operates a decent number of patrol boats and corvettes which require a lot of manpower. Fortunately the development of combat USV is accelerating by several defense companies. The Hanwha Group's idea of using the existing K239 rocket artillery's long-range tactical missile pods on unmanned surface ships is commendable. This is an excellent"

"Breaking news The official video for the K239 Chunmoo XXX has been released. Seems Israeli PLUS get destroyed by K239. This is the world's first system to combine a rocket artillery missile (CGR-080 CTM-290 etc) with loitering munition. Also XXX feature is operating CTM-ASBM anti-ship missile alongside loitering munition to increase effectiveness and standalone targeting. The CGR-080 has been upgraded to the L-PGW100 and the CTM-290 to the L-PGW300. Not only L-PGW the HE-Frag&Air-burst warhead penetrator warhead DPICM warhead and thermobaric warhead all can be changed depending on the target"

"The concept of using a loitering drone in a rocket launcher has been around for a while but Hanwha seems to be taking it to the next level. Just like CEC (cooperative engagement capability).

These are likely to be Malvar-class frigates or the HDF-3600 ordered by Peru. Looking back Hyundai is now delivering numerous warships to the world at an almost imperceptible rate. The Philippines is a crucial partner for Korean defense companies and agencies much like Middle Eastern countries(Saudi Arabia the UAE and Egypt) and Poland etc. A close look at the Philippines government procurement manual bidding process"

Following the successful launch of the Hycore hypersonic cruise vehicle in 2024 South Korea is moving quickly toward weaponization for production.

"Hmm Hanwha Aerospace is reportedly already producing the K9MH (Mobile Howitzer). Unveiled last year this ambitious variant is a wheeled version of the K9 which dominates the global SPH market. The K9MH utilizes the same turret as the latest high-performance K9A2. K9MH is currently being proposed to the US Army alongside the K9A2 and is being offered to other countries as well. In addition to the existing HE shells the K9 can use DPICM shells BB+RAP (ERM) shells ramjet-propelled shells observation shells guided shells area denial & suppression shells scatterable munition(mine) shells etc."
