History

Class: Infantry Fighting Vehicle
Developed: 1995-2005
Service: 2005+
Vehicles Built: cca 400
Operators: South Korea

The K21 is a modern infantry fighting vehicle, designed to replace the K200 series from the 1980s in the Korean Army. It features good protection and hi-tech weapon systems. The development started as early as in the mid-1990s with the goal being matching and surpassing the capabilities of the Russian BMP-3 IFV, which the South Koreans were very familiar with. The production was launched in November 2009 and seems to have ended in 2016 with around 400 vehicles built. An upgraded version called K21 PIP is currently in development.

Vehicle Traits

• Harder to Spot: When moving slowly, this vehicle does not lose any camouflage and can effectively creep around.
• Amphibious: This vehicle is more resistant to taking on water, allowing it to traverse wider rivers or lakes.
• Recon Package: This vehicle's set of advanced optics provides an improved vision range when stationary.
• Troop Compartment: This vehicle features a troop compartment, allowing you to repair your modules faster and to capture objectives more effectively.
