Thailand Army, Navy, and Air Force Introduce Weapon Systems to Major Countries

Establishing a Partnership as a Bridgehead to Expand Exports in the Asian Market

LIG Nex1 (CEO Kim Ji-chan) will participate in the international defense exhibition ‘Defense & Security 2023 (D&S 2023)’ held in Bangkok, Thailand from the 6th to the 9th.


The Thailand D&S exhibition is a biennial comprehensive defense industry exhibition covering land, sea, and air forces. The 10th exhibition in 2021 was postponed due to COVID-19 and was held last year.


This year’s 11th exhibition will feature about 480 companies from 45 countries, including several domestic defense companies such as LIG Nex1, KAI, Poongsan, and Hanwha Ocean.


LIG Nex1 has set the concept of this exhibition as ‘Power of Partnership’ and plans to showcase a variety of product lines that will serve as game changers in future battlefields, targeting the Thai Army, Navy, Air Force, and key countries. These include the KGGB (Korean GPS Guided Bomb), ground and ship-mounted guided weapons, and next-generation local air defense radars.


LIG Nex1 will also conduct promotions that can create synergy effects with the Thai military and local defense industry partners, going beyond simple weapon system sales.



Kim Ji-chan, CEO of LIG Nex1, said, “This Thailand D&S exhibition will serve as a foothold to establish long-term cooperative relationships between LIG Nex1, the Thai Ministry of Defense, and the armed forces. We will strive for the globalization of K-defense in line with the modernization of the military and strengthening of naval power in Thailand and other Southeast Asian countries.”
