South Korea has launched a project to develop a new electronic warfare (EW) aircraft using a business jet as the baseline platform.

The project was revealed by South Korea's Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA) on 13 April. According to DAPA, the project was discussed during the 152nd Defense Project Promotion Committee meeting held that day.

DAPA told Janes that the new aircraft would serve as a “stand-off jammer aircraft”, similar to the US Air Force's (USAF's) ‘Compass Call' aircraft. The agency said that the aircraft will be developed from 2024 to 2032 at a cost of KRW1.5 trillion (USD1.12 billion). Janes has learnt that four aircraft will be developed and acquired.
