Hanwha Aerospace presents future security vision to NATO reps

Hanwha Aerospace recently hosted permanent representatives from 30 NATO member states for the inaugural Hanwha-NATO PermReps Strategic Dialogue, presenting its next-generation defence vision spanning unmanned systems, manned-unmanned teaming, and satellite capabilities. During the visit, the company briefed the delegation on its proven defense platforms, including the K9 self-propelled howitzer and the Chunmoo Multiple Rocket Launcher System. Hanwha Aerospace supplies the K9 to six NATO member states, Poland, Finland, Estonia, Norway, Romania, and Türkiye, and holds the top global market share in self-propelled howitzers. The Chunmoo system has also been exported to Poland, Estonia, and Norway, further expanding the company’s strategic cooperation with NATO. The company also presented its localisation strategy, which contributes not only to European defence capabilities but also to local economies and industrial ecosystems. Hanwha Aerospace has broken ground on H-ACE Europe, a production facility in Romania, and established a joint venture with Poland’s WB Electronics for local production of Chunmoo guided missiles, deepening its integration into Europe’s defence industrial base. Jae-il Son, President & CEO of Hanwha Aerospace, said, “This visit reaffirmed the strong partnership between Hanwha Aerospace and NATO allies. We will continue strengthening European security through local production, sustainment, and tailored defence solutions. Our goal is to become NATO’s most trusted partner.” For Editorial Inquiries Contact: Editor Kym Bergmann at [email protected] For Advertising Inquiries Contact: Group Sales Director Simon Hadfield at [email protected]
