The South Korean company Hanwha Systems announced, in an official disclosure on Friday, that it will export two types of command, control and fire correction systems for the Korean K9A1 “Thunder” self-propelled artillery system and its K11 armored command vehicle to Egypt.

An official at the Korean company said: “We are happy to open the door to export the first fire command and management system to the Middle East through this difficult development.”

He added: “Hanwha will continue to secure new export operations, market Korean technology, and expand its presence in foreign markets.”

Egypt’s deal to acquire the Korean “Thunder” howitzer artillery system
Hanwha Systems has announced that it will supply a command system and fire management system for 51 K11 fire correction armored vehicles and 216 K9A1 self-propelled howitzers, in a deal that came into effect last year after signing a contract with Egypt in February 2022.

Korea's Hanwha plans to start supplying advanced systems during 2025

Hanwha Systems plans to supply a customized fire command and correction system that reflects local environmental and operational requirements in Egypt. It is planned that delivery of the contracted systems will begin in the first half of next year, to be completed by December 2028, according to the Korean company.



Fire control system
The fire control system fitted to the K11 armored vehicle is a basic tactical command and control system, enabling real-time target acquisition and positioning. It also transmits information related to influencing factors, such as direction and speed, in addition to other data related to firing, to the control and fire management system installed on the K9A1 self-propelled howitzer.

Egypt will manufacture the Korean artillery system locally
According to an official disclosure from the South Korean company Hanwha, Egypt will receive the first batch of howitzer artillery systems by 2025, and Egypt is scheduled to produce about 67% of the components of the advanced Korean artillery system within five years of launching the local manufacturing, transfer and localization program of technology.

Manufacturing the fire management system for the Korean gun locally
It is planned that the technology for manufacturing optical, electrical and electronic systems will be transferred for the first time to be manufactured locally in Egypt. Among these systems is the automatic fire management system (AFCS) for the Korean “Thunder” howitzer, which is planned to be produced by the Arab International Optics Company, affiliated with the Projects Authority. National service in the Egyptian army.



The fire command and management system for the Korean K9A1 "Thunder" howitzer, produced by Hanwha Systems, is known as an "Automatic Fire Control System (AFCS)" which allows for highly automated fire control, including calculating firing data based on weather conditions, target location, and ammunition type, enabling rapid and precise engagement of targets with minimal manual input; it also integrates with communication systems to receive fire commands and coordinates directly.
