  1. Nice. SK has the best heavy industry sector and is rapidly accelerating its precision weapons tech.

  2. The Meteor is one of the best missiles ever made. America is only now just catching up. South Korea is a great security partner. 🇦🇺 too., but I don’t like how theyre willing to throw their citizens under the bus at the behest of of the US DoD. Cheers from 🇺🇸.

  3. You can’t really compare heavy industry, of which South Korea has the best in the world, with advanced aerospace platforms. However, due to a strong base of highly skilled personnel and experience in other areas of tech, it is likely they can compensate for their late entry into military aircraft production. So, while I expect them to stay on track with their goals, it’d be overly optimistic to say they’ll be ready to start producing hundreds of these aircraft anytime soon. This 4th gen aircraft (it’s not 5th gen in any way), is also clearly a warm up in order to domestically produce a 6th gen aircraft as it is unlikely the US will be willing to sell anyone their 6th gen platform at any point.

  4.  @ViolentCabbage-ym7ko Frankly, this sounds like a Chinese bot post.

  5. The Su-75 is likely not even being developed. Of all the planes, it is the most likely to be a paper tiger.

  6. Unless Australia was trying to get in the aerospace game and make planes for export, this would make no economical sense. And, even then, the aerospace market has gotten way too big and competitive lately for this to be a good gamble for Australia. You’ve got the US, France, Sweden, Russia, China, Japan all with mature military airspace industries and South Korea, India, Turkey and more now getting into the game with a decade head start on you. Moreover, Australia has no labor cost advantage. Not sure what you would stand to gain, especially since most countries will sell military tech to Australia.

  7.  @ViolentCabbage-ym7ko The KF-21 is a 4th gen plane (not sure why this video kept calling it a 5th gen plane) and not even trying to be competitive. So, the US would likely just think “that’s a dumb move.” Not, oh they’re trying to take business away. Besides, most of its allies have already purchased the F-35. They’re not going to want to setup a whole other logistics chain for some new unrelated aircraft even if it was 5th gen.

  8.  @ViolentCabbage-ym7ko  Yeah because a) no one else has stealth fighters and b) comparing diesel to nuclear subs is the height of absurdity. You can argue you didn’t need nuclear subs, but to compare the price is ridiculous.

  9. I’m sure they were going to sell the info to China. It wouldn’t be for Indonesia to use themselves.

  10.  @mhmdiqball9879 He didn’t accuse the entire government or country of trying to steal design information. He said a single person had. They could be working for themselves, as a Chinese spy, etc. You’re being overly sensitive.
