Korean Air announced on 22 December that it has signed an agreement with Korea Research Institute for Defense Technology Planning and Advancement (KRIT) to research low-observable technologies for the next generation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

The company said in a statement that the agreement, which will run through 2025, will focus on researching airframe structure technologies that can help reduce a UAV's radar cross section (RCS), making it less detectable by enemy radars.

The agreement follows a contract awarded by KRIT to Korean Air in mid-September to support the government-funded ‘low-probability-of-intercept UAV technology research' project, and which will see the company testing the new ‘stealth' technologies thus developed for application to the next generation of UAVs.
