Huge Opportunities: As weapons from South Korea can quickly strengthen Ukraine

Korean manufacturers are known for their speed and willingness to localize production. If Seoul really relieves weapons, the defense forces will become even more technological and powerful. South Korea reviews the decision to ban weapons supply to Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin has already said it could be a "big mistake" for Seoul. The War Zone said that they would change for the defense forces if they receive the South Korean Army.

Until recently, South Korea helped Ukraine exclusively humanitarian and economically, without direct supply of weapons. If the situation changes, the Ukrainian army would receive a considerable amount of recent equipment. This response of Seoul may be a response to the signing of the DPRK and the Russian Federation, which in particular provides for the supply of weapons in the event of "aggression against one of the parties". Information on export policies has been appearing for the first time.

In 2023 there was already such a statement if a new large -scale offensive on the Ukrainian civilian population was made. Since then, the Russian Federation has repeatedly beat civilians. The prospect of South Korean weapons for Ukraine will open up new opportunities, as in recent years the military-industrial complex has developed very much. South Korea has become one of the leading weapons exporters, and now wants to become the 4 largest exporter.

The country produces everything: from aircraft to ammunition, from ballistic missiles to air defense systems. The main manufacturers are Hanwha, Hyundai Rotem, Lig Nex1, Hyundai Heavy Industries, and Korea Aerospace Industries. All these companies always go to the localization of production at the request of a potential customer. For example, Hanwha opened the production lines K9 in Australia, Egypt and Poland.

Ukraine also seeks to attract many countries to the deployment of plants within the country to strengthen and modernize defense forces. At the same time, one of the advantages of South Korean companies is the speed of supply. For example, Poland received the first tanks and SAU within 109 days after signing the contract, and the first FA-50 aircraft in 10 months. Very few countries in the world are able to show the same speed.

South Korea also offers a potentially very useful source of artillery ammunition as well as the artsystems themselves. Seoul already replenishes the US arsenals after supply to Ukraine. As a result, South Korea can quickly and largely supply weapons to Ukraine, which will strengthen Kiev. Poland, which already has the capacity of South Korean weapons, can win. We will remind, on June 18 it became known that Ukraine will receive 54 wheel SAU Rch-155.
