The South Korean Defense Industry - Market Opportunities and Entry Strategies, Analyses and Forecasts to 2016

The capital expenditure allocation for the South Korean army is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.90%, from an estimated US$1.9 billion in 2010 to over US$2.75 billion in 2015. Indeed, while there will be significant reductions in army manpower leading up to 2020, as part of the government’s Defense Reform Plan 2020, this reduction will be compensated by the acquisition of advanced technology and weaponry that requires minimal manpower.


During the forecast period (2011 - 2016), the capital expenditure allocation for the South Korean navy is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.90%. This will equate to an average of 15.84% of the total capital expenditure budget. The growth is attributed to the increased threat of sea hijacking by pirates and the need for increased maritime surveillance.

To strengthen the country’s intelligence and surveillance capabilities, the South Korean government has allocated 7.67% of its capital expenditure budget towards the procurement of new command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance and electronic warfare (C4ISREW) equipment. Indeed, it is estimated that the budget for surveillance and intelligence will grow at a CAGR of 7.90% during the forecast period (2011 - 2016).
