South Korea's Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA) has signed a contract worth KRW700 billion (USD541 million) with Hyundai Rotem for the mass production of the second batch of an unspecified number of wheeled command post vehicles (CPVs).

DAPA said in a press release on 21 June that in the second mass production batch the agency intends to evaluate the “Ukrainian-Russian war pattern” to detect improvements in the CPVs with the goal to deploy an improved version of vehicles with the Republic of Korea Army (RoKA).

“During this second mass production, we plan to secure a highly reliable weapon system by applying the latest technology necessary for weapon system operation such as operator safety and convenience as well as interconnectivity with other weapon systems,” DAPA added.

According to DAPA, the CPV is intended to replace “tent-type field command posts that take too long to install and dismantle, and cannot protect against enemy firearms, artillery, and chemical, biological, and radiological attacks”.
