  "summary": "Hanwha Group Chairman Kim Seung-youn has called for Hanwha Systems to bolster its defense artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities, as the conglomerate aims to utilize AI-based command-and-control systems to interconnect its land, sea, air, and space defense systems. During a visit to Hanwha Systems’ Gumi plant in North Gyeongsang Province, Kim emphasized the importance of achieving \"unparalleled defense AI capabilities\" while maintaining a \"safety-first\" culture. The chairman inspected the assembly and testing of the multifunction radar for the Cheongung-II medium-range surface-to-air missile (M-SAM) system, which has been exported to the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq. The Gumi facility has become a key export hub for Hanwha’s defense business and a center for technological innovation.",
