On June 16, 2025, the South Korean company Hanwha Systems and the American defense contractor Northrop Grumman officially signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) for the joint development of integrated air defense (air defense) systems. This strategic partnership aims to create a multi-layered and interoperable air defense architecture capable of effectively countering modern and increasingly complex aerial threats.
The announcement of the cooperation was made against the backdrop of growing demand for advanced air defense systems both in the Indo-Pacific region and in NATO theaters. The new integrated system will combine Hanwha Systems' advanced radar technology with Northrop Grumman's innovative Air and Missile Defense Combat Control System (IBCS).
It is expected that this cooperation will significantly enhance the operational capabilities of air defense systems, provide faster and more accurate data processing, and improve coordination between various platforms and defense assets. This will effectively detect, track, and neutralize a wide range of threats, from drones and cruise missiles to ballistic and hypersonic targets.
