On October 28, Ante Susnjar, Croatia’s Minister of Economy, visited LIG Defense & Aerospace's (LIG D&A) Pangyo House R&D Center in South Korea. The visit aimed to explore various defense cooperation measures, including a multilayer air-defense network system. The system showcased by LIG D&A is designed to provide seamless defense capabilities, from low to high altitude.

Baek Hyeong-sik, head of LIG D&A's Overseas Business Division, expressed optimism that the company's multilayer air-defense system technology would bolster Croatia's defense capabilities and safeguard its airspace. He also underscored his dedication to forging a new chapter in defense cooperation between the two nations through collaborative efforts.

Susnjar provided an overview of Croatia’s defense sector's technological prowess during his meeting with LIG D&A officials. He proposed the potential for synergies between Croatian companies, particularly in the development of military communication networks and unmanned systems. These advanced technologies could form the basis for new joint projects. Susnjar also anticipated that such cooperation would not only bolster Croatia’s domestic industry and manufacturing but also open up new export opportunities.

LIG D&A plans to leverage the visit to reinforce its export competitiveness in the European market for air-defense systems. The company aims to expand multifaceted global defense partnerships by pursuing technological cooperation and joint development with local Croatian companies.
