Another North Korean military piece making it’s way on the battlefield.
The North Korean M-1978 SPG “Koksan” has been spotted being transported on rail in Krasnoyarsk, russia.

No source, just a few things i’ve heard of /my thoughts.
There have been quite a few pershings used by koreans… of the north veriety. Apparently captured pershings were used as costal batteries and one’s in a museum.
A few M60’s had been given to SK to help reasearch the K-1. Givin how important that tank is to korean tank industry, being in the tree somewhere (squadron? Prem? TT?) Would still make sense.
M36 jackson was considerd a ‘light tank’ to the ROK. Its even semi unique, having extra frontal armor plates and a hull MG.
Anything used in the korean war is kiinda hard to pin down if things were used by koreans due to both sides kinda going under unified command.

This is the remains of the Cheonma-216, which was used as a target for shooting practice.
I think we can guess what its turret additional armor will be like and how thick it will be.

M2020 improved with new turret type
They decided to follow K2 instead of Abrams.

Some other vehicles of note shown here:
‘M2020’ short-range SAM system that appears to be a Tor-derivative, and what appears to be a photo of it during test-firing on the info board in front.
8x8 version of the NLOS ATGM carrier!

The United Korea tech tree would be the greatest thing to experiment a rework on the subtrees

To be honest it would be like west and east germany in the german TT or ROC and PRC in chinese TT
Would like it though, always a huge advocate of korean and chinese reunification

Really hope we will see a Korea Tech Tree this year, finally some fresh air IMO.
Also working on more Suggestions for this, already got XK2 FTR finished; interesting variant, XK2 turret on a K1 (K1A1?) hull.

Unfortunately the Q&A said no more new independent trees this year. Maybe 2026.
I also need to finish my set of K1 suggestions, still got all the K1A1 family to do.

It was too bad that gaijin said they wouldn’t be joining a new TT next year.

I was actually holding my breath for perhaps the XK1 or K1 MBT since they did recently remove the XM-1 (GM) Abrams prototype premium tank for the U.S. I guess I’ll have to roleplay the only South Korean vehicle in the game with the K9 T̶h̶u̶n̶d̶e̶r̶ VIDAR :P

what is that?
K3 concept, unknown if it ever gets a prototype built.
Interesting, heard Poland was going to collaborate somewhat with South Korea on this
Thats a good question because it hasn´t been identified by name. There are other materials regarding this tank. What I see is a modified K2 hull with an unmanned turret (130mm). Its either a quick commercial competitor to the likes of KF-51 or a lower risk alternative to the development of a next generation fully electric tank based on hydrogen cells (the concept thats been presented in all recent expos). It could also be an interim solution until the fully electric tank is viable, like Leopard ARC 3.0 or Leclerc Evolution are in regards to MGCS.
More stuff related to this K2 with unmanned turret (for the moment, I would like to call it “K2.5” EDIT: official designation is K2A1):

All I know about Poland’s collab at the moment is that they want to license produce a very own variant; the K2PL with one additional wheel per track, hard kill APS, RCWS and some other stuff. Though we have to wait n see how the final Product looks like.
Maybe someone else knows more, I am not really following the project at the moment, rather K2EX and (possible) customers in SEA region.
