In a statement on 26 December, DAPA also confirmed indigenous programs to start mass producing a new automatic command-and-control system and an improved variant of the Cheongung Korean medium-range surface-to-air missile (KM-SAM). The administration also said it had finalized its latest five-year defense industrial development plan.
DAPA admitted that the programs to restart development of the radar and countermeasures system for the Republic of Korea Air Force (RoKAF) is a result of flaws found in existing projects to develop the two respective technologies.
