South Korea’s Defence Ministry allocates $178.6 million to mass produce KF-21 Boramae fighter planes
The South Korean Air Force hopes to have 120 Boramae fighters overall by 2032, with the KF-21 being intended to replace the ageing F-4 and F-5 squadrons. As the backbone of the Air Force, the aircraft is expected to be essential in developing the three-axis system, a tactical manoeuvre designed to counter possible North Korean strikes.
