Main products in service with the country
ROK Navy has operated the Lynx for 30 years in the Anti-Submarine and Anti-Surface Warfare Roles. In 2016 they took delivery of 8 of the latest AW159 helicopters to enhance this ASW/ASuW capability. Our civil helicopter range is extensively used in roles as diverse as VIP transport, Fire Rescue, EMS, Police and Coastguard operations.
ROK Navy has operated Leonardo naval guns for over 30 years and we continue to support them in operation and maintenance.
Our avionic systems are used in a variety of roles – both as products fitted to military aircraft and as part of the development of future systems such as KF-X.
Our radar and communications systems are also found on ships both in domestic and export applications.
We supply the Hybrid Electric Drive (HED) propulsion system for the Republic of Korea Navy's future Incheon-class multipurpose frigate (FFX-II).
