Greetings from Turkey🇹🇷. ROK produces some damn good military equipment. We use T155 Fırtına, a license built variant of K9 Thunder in Turkey and it performs very well. Considering that ROK couldn't even produce pistols properly 70 years ago, they have come a very long way.
@@danielrauf4094 Hayır pek değil. Güney Kore bizden daha iyi pek çok konuda. Bir ülkenin tarihinin uzunluğunun şu anki gelişmişliğine pek etkisi yoktur. Güney Kore özellikle 80'lerden sonra baya gelişmeye başladı. Biz de o arada Siyasal İslamcılar ve terörle uğraşıyorduk. Hala da öyleyiz.
K21 is very similar to cv90. In the 1990 South Korea was invited to Sweden by USA at CV90 the demonstration. Their 2009 version is less armoured but is can swim. Both have 40mm, but CV90 is exported with different weaponsystem and is now the most sold IFV in Europe.
With a despotic regime that is always breathing down their neck and is fine with shelling South Korean cities just for the lulz, it's not wonder the South Koreans are very good at building weapons.
Some good engineering getting over 200 stowed rounds of normal 40mm ammunition in the vehicle. The way they have made them amphibious is also interesting engineering. 😎👍
12 men supported by high volume large caliber fire from the mother ship. 40 mm. It's awesome. Bradley with 25 mm was a start. Now 50 mm is on the horizon.
@@KC-gh5hw K21 proved it can defend 40mm gun from the front as well as the BMP3's 30mm gun, while M1 Bradly's coudn't fend off BMP3's 30mm gun in its standard form.
Out of curiosity is there a reason the infantry isn't wearing plate carriers? Mainly in regards to the soldiers going in and out of the APC transports?
@@SuperGeronimo999 Unfortunately, Korea is one of the few democratic countries that 1. has mandatory universal conscription 2. penalises homosexuality in the armed forces
Cringe af... cause I can imagine an overpassionate random officer shows up and says like "alright, you two, why dont you do some kinda friendly looking hand thing for the better promote video" and guys are just like "yes sir(who tf does that when you entering the vehicle in hurry, you idot...)
i just hope it is NOT another troop transport that can't carry troops, a reconnaissance vehicle that's too conspicuous to do reconnaissance, and a quasi-tank that has less armor than a snowblower, but has enough ammo to take out half of D.C....
마개조 수준이라면 호주 사양 AS-21정도는 되야 마개조라고 할 수 있습니다. 도하기능 없애버리고, k-9 파워팩과 거기에 맞는 서브펜션으로 교체하고 장갑을 덕지덕지 붙어야 비로소 마개조라 할 수 있죠. (다만, 최근 장갑 구조가 모듈형인 경우가 많아 옵션에 가까워지기는 하지만요. ) 전차 주포를 탑재한 k21-105이나 k21-120은 기존의 k-21 차체을 거의 그대로 활용한 거라 마개조라기 보다는 하나의 옵션에 가깝습니다.
Curious vehicle :P the 40mm main gun has a lot of similarities to the Bofors 40mm, in the muzzle cone and how it ejects the shell casings out the top. Wonder if they're related
@@kimjongun4466 Yes... "Legally". I seriously hope you don't believe they only have a "defense". They do everything just like every other country, but call it, and says it needed for defense.
@@user-vb8sf6mu2v 달기만 하면 되는게 아니라 포탑 내부에서 재장전하기 때문에 포탑에 문도 뚫어야 하고 여분 미사일탄약 적재고도 설치해야하고 사격통제장치와 연동까지 시켜야 하는 박업이 요구될겁니다. 소총에 스코프 다는것 마냥 몇초만에 뚝딱 끝나는게 아니라 공장 한번씩은 다녀와야 할겁니다. 그걸 운용하는 방법을 훈련시키는것까지 고려하면 적어도 몇달은 걸리겠죠. 전시에 달고 자시고 할 수가 없습니다. 발사기 설치 다 해놓고 탄약보급을 전시에 늘리는거면 몰라도 발사기까지 설치하는거면 개량사업 1차물량 시작할때쯤 전쟁 끝나있을겁니다.
