[Edaily Reporter Lee Hye-ra] #Samyang Comtech announced on the 8th that it has secured consecutive orders for the mass production of additional armor for domestic armored vehicles and special armor for K2 tanks intended for export.
Samyang Comtech recently secured an order worth approximately 2.2 billion won from Hyundai Rotem for additional armor for wheeled command post vehicles. It has also secured an order worth approximately 3.3 billion won from Hanwha Aerospace for additional armor for 30mm wheeled anti-aircraft gun vehicles, thereby expanding its domestic supply base for armored vehicle armor.
The company has also secured mass production orders related to the export version of the K2 main battle tank. Samyang Comtech secured a mass production order from Hyundai Rotem for special armor for the K2 main battle tank related to its export. This order represents a preemptive securing of a portion of the mass production volume prior to the main contract and includes some units of the performance-enhanced version.
The performance-upgraded version of the K2 tank is an export model designed to reflect local operational environments and performance requirements, necessitating enhanced protection capabilities compared to the existing K2 tank. Through this secured mass production order, Samyang Comtech plans to reaffirm the technological capabilities and supply stability it has accumulated in the field of specialized tank armor, while also preparing to respond to the expansion of additional export volumes.
The company intends to steadily deliver the secured mass-production orders while continuously strengthening its growth foundation through new exports and technological advancement.
A Samyang Comtech official stated, “We will achieve sales growth through the stable production and delivery of the secured orders, while further solidifying our position as a key partner in the K-defense industry by expanding overseas exports and technology transfer projects.”
