New details have emerged about the Philippine Army’s (PA) own modernization efforts during this week’s ADAS arms show. In recent months, the medium-term plans of its sister services, the Philippine Navy (PN) and Air Force (PAF), were revealed but it’s now clear the ground forces have their own prerogatives.

One company that’s confident about its prospects is South Korea’s Hanhwa Defense International or Hanhwa Defense Systems. Though much of its catalog is divided between precision weapons and C4I equipment, the company is now responsible for manufacturing the K21 infantry fighting vehicle and its derivatives.

The K21-105 medium tank retains the hull of the original vehicle whose armor level makes it impervious to large caliber automatic weapons. Thick side skirts partially cover the tracks and these have a secondary purpose aside from stopping shaped charges.
