Did you screenhot the video scenes? Just posted it here without noticing your pics

Video from first overseas ROK joint exercises with K9 SPH, K10 Ammunition Resupply Vehicle, K1 Armored Recovery Vehicle and K2 MBT in Qatar.

First time for me seeing K9A1 and PzH2000, K2 and Leo 2A7 firing side by side in a training exercise.

It's been a long time. I'm glad it was adopted now. Rather than simply rejoicing over the decision, the SNT should respond faithfully to the demands of the military and build credibility going forward.

There's a lot more interesting stuff in the video lol. It seems like what's going to happen in Europe is being shown first in the Qatar desert.

Not that I know of. Korea has a pretty good infra for industrial & commercial hydrogen applications, and know how of hydrogen fuel cells similar to Germany.
