Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) is expanding its presence in the European defense market by showcasing a variety of manned and unmanned combat systems at the MSPO 2026 in Poland. The company is highlighting its Next Generation Aerial Combat System (NACS), which integrates the KF-21 fighter jet with unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs), advanced multi-purpose unmanned aircraft, and low-Earth-orbit communications satellites.
KAI is positioning this system as a networked combat architecture, aiming to evolve the KF-21 toward sixth-generation capabilities. Additionally, KAI is emphasizing the future expansion of its FA-50 platform through manned-unmanned teaming (MUM-T), demonstrating how the light combat aircraft can take on expanded missions by operating alongside unmanned assets.
The FA-50 has already secured a significant contract in Poland, serving as a strategic foothold for KAI in European markets.
