A mixture of high cost and low reliability have led a number of nations to seek their own indigenous alternatives to the US’ F-35 stealth fighter, including US partners like South Korea and Japan that have also agreed to buy some of the jets.
At a Friday ceremony in Sacheon, South Korea, the country’s first indigenously designed stealth fighter was unveiled: the Korea Aerospace Industries KF-21, previously known as the KF-X.
Attending were South Korean President Moon Jae-in and a delegation from Indonesia that included Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto. Jakarta has a 20% stake in the KF-21 program, although its commitment has been questioned in recent months amid economic troubles and a delay in payments to the program.
