Hyundai Rotem has confirmed plans to produce “about 50” more K2 main battle tanks (MBTs) for the Republic of Korea Army (RoKA) in a third batch of vehicles that will be funded through the country's 2023 defence budget.

A company official also told Janes at the DX Korea 2022 exhibition – being held in Goyang from 21 to 25 September – that a fourth batch of K2 MBTs is expected to be required by the RoKA by the mid-2020s. This latter batch would take total K2 deliveries to more than 400 vehicles.

The first and second batches are numbered 106 and 100, respectively. The production of the second batch was confirmed as completed in early 2022. The first-batch contract was signed in 2011.
