United Korean Aviation Tech Tree

It was certain that the IL-28 was in North Korea, but I wasn’t so sure about the H-5 for a few reasons.


There is a cannon on the right side from the pilot’s perspective. (On the H-5, the right cannon was removed, except for the early models.)

According to Chinese source(魏钢, 陈应明, 张维. (2011). 中国飞机全书 (Vol. 3). 航空工业出版社.), the first export of the H-5 was to Albania in 1971. (Given the timing, it likely wouldn’t have been an early model of the H-5.)

I should look into this with more interest!

ROK Navy’s P-3C & P-3CK’s with (some of) it’s armament loadout



ROK Navy also operated S-2E Trackers though I didn’t posted it here since there’s no images of Korean Trackers with it’s armament loadout and if it did it would be identical to every other Nation’s Tracker that isn’t Canada’s
