[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Paul Lee] Hanwha Aerospace announced on the 7th (local time) that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Romania's state-run defense company Romam for cooperation in weapons systems.

With this agreement, the two companies agreed to cooperate in the supply, utilization, and maintenance of Hanwha Aerospace's weapons system, including the K9 self-propelled artillery and the Redback Infantry Combat Armored Vehicle (IFV).

Romania, a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO·) and bordering Ukraine, is currently pursuing a military modernization project while increasing its defense budget. In particular, the company said it is interested in introducing a proven Korean weapons system to change the old weapons system centered on old armored vehicles and towing guns.
