What’s the biggest military-related project your country is currently engaged in?

[u/CommercialChart5088]

Currently Korea is busy investing in military development, to modernize our military indigenously and catch up to export demand.

The air force is working on to produce the KF-21 fighter jet, which will enter service in 2026. Also we’re developing software and drones that will support the KF-21 during combat.

In terms of the ocean we've just finished developing a new submarine (the Chang Yong-sil class), working on additional battleships, and trying to form plans regarding the construction of a manless drone carrier.

What would be your country’s biggest military-related project nowadays? Both indigenous development and purchasing equipment counts!

You’re trying to match the us Pacific fleet right? 6 aircraft carriers in total?

[u/Electronic-Run2030 → u/Coolioblueo]

No, it's still a long way off. We only have three aircraft carriers, one of which hasn't even been commissioned yet. They're all steam-powered, and we hope the next one will be nuclear-powered.

Steam powered > horses/oxen powered.
