The presentation of the K239 Chunmoo marks the public debut of the combat firing capability of this long-range rocket artillery complex. During the demonstration, more than 50 rockets were launched, precisely hitting a selected island as the target.

The K239 Chunmoo system is a modern and versatile rocket artillery platform, standing out as the second largest in terms of production volume, only behind the US rocket artillery systems.

Historically, South Korea has followed a policy of refusing to supply weapons to countries in a state of conflict. However, this policy is being reviewed after Vladimir Putin signed a strategic partnership document with Kim Jong-un.

Effective propaganda for this technology would be to show videos of how it can destroy Russian targets. If South Korea decides to supply this weapon to Ukraine, it could be beneficial for both countries, strengthening alliances and demonstrating the power of their military technology.
