South Korea completes development of Wheeled Anti-Aircraft Gun!
Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA) announced today that development of wheeled anti-aircraft gun has been successfully completed. The project involved Hanwha Defense and 200 other small firms.
Dubbed the Anti-Aircraft Gun Wheeled Vehicle System (AAGW) by its manufacturer, this system began development in June, 2015 with budget of 55 billion won (approximately $46.6 million) as replacement for aging Vulcan Air Defense System (VADS).
AAGW consists of modified Hanwha Defense K30 Biho turret and Hyundai Rotem K808 chassis. Search radar from the original K30 Biho has been removed. Instead, it maintains wired and wireless datalink with TPS-880K Local Air Defense Radar (LADR) and Air Defense Command & Control Alert (ADC2A) Network. The use of existing proven technology and platform significantly reduced development time and cost as well.
