The 155mm K9 Thunder is combat proven against North Korea. Today it’s an extremely successful vehicle; with over 1,700 have been produced. Each one costs about $2.9 million dollars per unit so you could almost trade one in for the cost of a single home in America. The K9 has many of the capabilities that originally were supposed to be in the United States prototype XM2001 Crusader. But that $11 billion dollar program was canceled.

Written by: Chris Cappy & Armando Duarte Galan
With its new fire control system it offers an insanely high rate of fire at 10 rounds per minute; That’s 4 rounds per minute faster than the old technology. So this is what you call in when you need an entire mountain removed from the face of the earth.

Who needs Apple store if you can have Korean artillery franchise in your home country
Imagine if Samsung still produces this SPH.
Now make an Apple ITank it would be funny
How do I get a franchise license?😂
It’s actually great for them, lil kim can’t disrupt weapon production if it’s halfway around the world in Poland.
10 rounds per minute!!!
Apple just opened it's first Apple store in India, and India also has K9 manufacturing plant.
I'm a machinist in Kansas USA. We use a TON of Korean and Japanese CNC machines for production projects. Pretty durable, reliable machines despite being over 15 years old!
I just wanna say to all South Korean that will see my message Im Polish and i thank you all for what youve done with the tanks and artillery even if its not free thank you guys and bless South Korea From Poland
Thank America for funding it
Thanks from south korea 🇰🇷
Poland saved a ton of money buying Korean tanks & artillery. The equivalent US ones are inferior and costs 50% more.
We want to see metal Hussars. The Poles deserve it, that's all.
I hope that we will be reborn as the strongest army in Europe and have a strong military force that will never be invaded like before. From our friend Korea, which has a similar history of being subject to many foreign invasions.
THIS is why I purchased a Korean made tractor for my farm!
The Korean manufacturing industry is Always on an improvement blitz and I am familiar with the CNC industry as I worked directly for Doosan as well. The Korean culture is always looking to improve and surpass the competition. Much better than anything manufactured in India or China in this regard, in my opinion.
There very good equipment and Best Buy also
That’s correct. It’s ingrained in our culture to adapt and improve, we had to survive the Japanese
Which SK Tractor brand did you get?
Thx man for buying our products

AATW!
존경합니다!!
The scary thing is that there are almost 300,000 men under the age of 35 who can handle these gloves in Korea
More than 80 percent of Korean men served two to three years regardless of age
They can still remember and run everything they need in the military
I am 53 years old too, but I can remember and operate everything I learned in the army

Your country should invade the North unilaterally, whether the US allows it or not. A war sounds grim but it is the only way to bring some life back to the Korean way of living that is dying under the stress of a hectic working culture, lack of children and an ageing population.
You need war.
Isn't 300,000 a small number?

I'm glad our allies are becoming powerful themselves.
Yup! Hopefully things never come to war, but if they do, hopefully RoKA beats some DPRKA ass.
Korea has been putting well over 2% of GDP into its military for decades.
Korea was never a concern - concern is about our other allies, like leak showing Trudeau saying that Canada will never meet the 2% NATO spending goal. Throw in Germany etc.
I hope they do step up.
Militarily maybe but ideologically .. not so much
Always has been. American vehicles all have German, British, Japanese components and technology. Always been a collaboration. Americans mostly don’t see it that way though.
@@u2beuser714 tf does that mean?
I served in an artillery brigade close to the border. I mainly operated radar but those K9s were pretty damn impressive
To bad the US didn't go with the Crusader. Army doesn't is just as bad as the AF for blowing money on projects.
I was stationed at Hovey/Casey, 88M (you call, we haul) and the ammo handler for 4/7 Cav...the war games were awesome to watch between us and the ROK. Air and ground would meet at KTC and unload onto a mountain
I served in Turkish artillery forces. I saw every type of US artillery and Turkish K9 artillery in action. K9 is a monster that destroy enemy front lines.
@@edwardbrennan7825 ah that must’ve been pretty cool to participate in those war games. Unfortunately I never got involved in that but had did some interpretation for the US army officers for 6. 25 ceremonies and stuff. Good times! I’m glad to hear you enjoyed your time there.
@@bastadimasta I didn’t know you guys also have K9s. Kinda makes sense tho considering the landscape. Brother country! 😁
I'd like to point out that the K9-Thunder is actually being used by the Indian Army and a few units are currently deployed along the LAC (India China border separating Ladakh and Tibet) and the version of the K9-Thunder that we use is called K9-Vajra, which basically means the same thing but it's in Hindi
Edit: As of now we have also ordered 200 more K9s to add to our already large arsenal of 100 K9s
I hear the K9 totally rekt the chinese trash artillery units.
@@kenmasters2025 It did. Completely decimated them.
@@kenmasters2025 When did that happen.
@@hoot1025 Of course it happens when they dream. Tibet is an extreme high ground with extreme environment that Korea development team can never imagine. According to Chinese news, Tibet field test is standard development procedure in China that they even make ballistic computer high ground mode and trajectory chart for every type of shell and weapon to ensure they hit as accurate as sea level. Those Russian tanks and Korea SPH are going to have a hard time to land their shots in Tibet.

Man I miss Korea. Them ROK soldiers were cool. And omg kimchi.
한국에 다시 방문해주세요.
김치, 술, 고기를 대접하겠습니다. 감사합니다.
@albertkeneipp8586 You know that you can buy kimchi in the US right?
ROK soldiers have the reputation of being the toughest in the world.
Korean high end manufacturing kicks ass - great people to do business with too. You gotta know an outfit that came up with black five-layered pork belly cooked over a charcoal grill are going to perform under fire!
The real kicker is South Korea's ability to produce 3.2M 155mnm shells for these guns. U.S. capacity is currently at 300k rounds per year and the DoD is trying to bump it to 900k rounds per year, and the E.U. is debating the merits of building their own 155mm shell factories so they can produce 1m rounds per year. South Korea alone can produce 3.2M rounds per year, TODAY, right now if needed. Their capacity exceeds the U.S. and EU combined. And we can't really depend on the EU anyways so the global NATO 155mm shell production is solely on the shoulders of South Korea right now
Absolutely true. Once South Korea decides to supply Ukraine directly with ammo, Russia is fucked.
Little Czechia alone is already producing over 100k shells a year, so it's not like there isn't any production in EU. What is needed is actually placing massive orders to the existing plants, preferably long term, so the facilities can start planning their production and recruitment needs.
"We can't depend on the EU" is this some Fox-News s***? The contracts are already done and production is ramping up.
@@johanmetreus1268 Rheinmetall they are producing 600.000 155mm shells in 2023🤷♂️
Seouly* on the shoulders of South Korea right now
I'm sorry
Glad to see you are really having fun with these videos lately. Thanks for all you do man
my grandfather was also drafted into Korea and he was a MP when first in country and actually had to go train with a fire team because of exactly what you talked about, with the soldiers losing their hearing and he had to do that for 6 months before being sent back to the base he was a MP officer at, thank you for your families service

Australia got it too and its going to be called the "AS9 Huntsman" here. Named after a spider not necessarily dangerous to humans but notorious for its speed, size, strength and terrifying appearance. Hanwha is also arguably going to win the Australian Army's IFV competition as well. If they do, the K21, if Australia adopts it, will ALSO be named after a spider. The "AS21 Redback." Redbacks ARE deadly to humans.
Makes sense - Their tech looks to be excellent and their pricing is sharp.
Hmmm how does one fit funnel web name into military equipment.
@@a-dawg8576 Yeah, a shame. Funnel webs are one of the most dangerous spiders in the world but their name would sound silly on military equipment.
Shame we're going to half our order of these though.
@@Apocalypsse Yeah, heard something bout that. Wonder what changed. Unless the budget for the nuclear subs really cut into these as well.
Fun fact (or not so fun fact when you really think about it): the Korean DMZ, with its 70 years of having gone practically untouched by either side, has become a de facto nature reserve. Full of rare and endangered animal species, like the Amur tiger and the white-naped crane.

Well that's gonna suck for those exotic animals when it finally pops off
bro, there is no tiger in DMZ. Infact, tiger has gone extinct in Korean pennisula long time ago.
It is really amazing what South Korea managed to achieve in 70 years even overtaking industrial power house countries like Germany in some fields.
1 thing they have in common, there's always that big guy that have that umbrella when it looks like it is about to rain. It's their daddy America 😂
@@caboose69 Yes but realistically the rest of the west is also under that umbrella, some having even gotten more aid
@@caboose69 No it's not. Go look at the long list of countries that received foreign support and tell me it's common for countries to shoot up the ranks like Korea did. You don't seem to know Korea's history and yet you rob them of their feat so casually. Korea was literally a wasteland just 70 years ago.
@@caboose69 Ukraine didn't have a big daddy. Do you know what they are going through right now?
@@ashburnianim sorry what country is basically getting hundreds of pieces of modern equipment for free?
As a South Korean I’m really proud of my ancestors who worked so hard to bring a country that was a total wasteland with no electricity after the war up to the level of producing vehicles such as this and selling them to other countries!!! Wooooohoooo big gun go booom! 😂
Big love from Poland, we never had a more solid business partner than SK, you are incredible. Both our countries had our glorious past trampled on by the schemes of our neighbours. But you cannot hold a king down for long.
Paradoxically n.korean threatening for the last 70 years has facilitated S.Korean military industries. S.Korean armed forces have 600k troops. They are huge and massive consumers who helped the military industries to reinvest and create new technology continuously. American technological supports have played a great role in the process of military development.
S.Korean industries covered with total field of business. for example, metal, chemical, shipbuilding motor, bio and semiconduct. S Korean weapons are already testified at battlefields against n. Korean provocations.
Finn here, We appreciate the excellent tools for a job that needs to be done.
South Korea makes good stuff.
And your zombie movies are great! :)
@@dickbison *Laughs in any European language and Russian*
K9 is not neccesarily best of the best, but Koreans offer really good deals on technology transfer and licencing. Its practically a ready made kit to produce in your country.
Do they come in matte black? I'll take 10!
Perhaps Korea has developed the ideal means of developing their arms industry, by ensuring it has a disproportionately large income due to these production licences. Other countries which might otherwise not be able to buy their products would now be happy to partner with the Koreans. Seems like win win.
@@conormcmenemie5126 it has its own logic: yes, we sell you ready made tech and you'll be able to make the stuff we sold you on your own, but with the profits from selling you our tech we'll develop even better tech.
True, things like the Pzh2000 beat UT by sheer specs, but the K9 is just a great product for such a relatively low price.
@@phunkracy Plus once the business / development relationship is made it always becomes easier to partner for further products and innovations. Don't work hard, work smart.

im digging these new uploads and how quick they're popping out
We Koreans often call our Ministry of Defense as "Ministry of Artillery" because of the sheer number of our canons in service: 1040 K55, 1200 K9, ~850 K105A1 (105mm howitzer on truck). Total of 3000+ SPH not counting older towed/field artillery still in service
❤
350,000 troops were dispatched to the Vietnam War. We're always ready for war 😂
Well more like 'minestry of cannons' dont discount our massive tank army
South Korea should be happy they even exist 😂
Well, they have that cousin who is always jealous, they have that brother from another mother who is always on their back, and also the father that even far away, it's always ready to protect his children. That's South Korea, Japan, and the US. The jealous one was that North Korea.
Well presented, as usual! Loving the adds! :D
The M1978 Koksan is not entirely based on 180mm S-23, but it combines the recoil mechanism of one with the barrel and ammuntion of 17cm Kanone 18 which was supplied to North Korea as surplus from captured German stockpile by the Soviets as they moved towards their newer and standardised artillery system.
>17cm Kanone 18
Is... is that my
are you smoking sth ? the "precious" Korean tanks need VARIOUS items like transmissions because they are unable to produce sth of comparable quality....
Always wondered what kind of people know so much detail about such less known weapons.
Dude, that goat gun skit was hilarious!
I normally skip peoples ads in videos but not yours. Keep up the great work
We are building an Australianised version here called the AS9 Huntsman. AS is the NATO code for Australia so most of the vehicles bought or built in the last 15 years or so have an AS prefix. They have cut back the number though unfortunately to acquire more missiles and that type of thing.
OMG! Your Goat gun ads are too die for! One ad I'm actually excited to see!
Your channel is the only one whose ads I don't skip. The GOAT gun ads are the best.

Ok K9 thunder is good but Damn That reloading vehicle to transfers Artillery shells without exiting is awesome!
Wait till the K9A2 version becomes operational. It will be fully automated from loading, and target acquisition to firing. But the next version K9A3 version currently in development will have unmanned capabilities with AI that can act independently or as part of a drone battery.
@@michaellim4165 Anything with offensive weapons attached as a drone is bad idea. If enemy can get into command link and highjack it, you are screwed. Even just electronic warfare methods on attacking signal can disable whole system in worst case since everything is wireless. Also if drone gets stuck or there is malfunction, there is no one around to get it unstuck hence need for men to solve issues in the field.
@@Hellsong89 That's just rumor or wishlist of K9A3. I think 70 to 100km range increase is real spec, but driverless is probably just might be wishlist. It will come down to 2 crew with driver and commander with full autoloading SPH.
I am Korean and worked in the Korean artillery unit for two years. I am a real user of K9. It is a very good device. Guaranteed by real users
I really just put this on my second monitor to get through some editing but your Goat gun ad was actually so good! 🤣😂

Very informational, thank you
Hey lad, love your simple way of explaining military things, without making stuff up. Of course there is a acasional coment thats wrong, but im yet to find someone who is 100% correct. You should revisit the topic of the baltic states if you feel like it!
The vehicle to vehicle ammo transfer looks awesome and is a great idea. That said, I would love to hear the Korean soldier's jokes about it because the transfer resembles something else...
On paper it is a good idea, but I have heard that there were alignment concerns. Not sure if we fixed that or if it was a whole load of nothing.
@@Mariner797 alignment issues, ouch...
Im not quite sure, thats adding another armored vehicle, more fuel consumption and personell. The advantage in the case of biological weapons or limited nuclear strike dont seem like it would be useful for most countries buying.
(I know nothing about artillery)
@@correctionguy7632 This is a proactive attempt from Korea. Our declining birthrates is a national security issue, which is why we are investing in trying automate things that can be automated. In addition, in any military the personnel are the most expensive part of any unit or vehicle. You can build a tank or a jet within a few months. It takes decades to raise and train a soldier.
@@correctionguy7632 How about safer loading of shells under combat? Would you rather expose trained artillery crew with this grunt work during combat? Or in severe cold, rain, wind, slippery mud, dust storm?
My Dad was a gunner in the NZ battalion sent to Korea as part of the commonwealth Bde .

If my ass is going to war, I want someone like Cappy in my squad. Guy is a morale booster.
Having another ally with a robust defense industrial base is a positive. Additionally, Korea’s license agreement spreads out the base even wider.
No wonder my country Australia brought this system from Korea and we are going to produce them domestically(We called our version the Huntsman) along hopefully with the Redback IFV if selected.
As long as you don't go and buy Ajax from GB you should be well l;)

K9 Vajra the Indian version is so well adapted from original that indian armed forces were able to deploy these in Line of actual control in quick notice when these where originally ordered for desert warfare. Against Pakistan .. South Koreans were quick to provide necessary support for cold climate kit for the guns safety. Indian armed forces considering to manufacture another 200 pieces which twice the original planned.
Trials also underway to test its performance in terrains all along Pakistan and China if it’s good then then number will go to more than 1000 guns
Good, it pisses me off that the US( my home) supplied Pakistan with military assistance for so long. I heard we cut aid by a lot but that's not $0 in aid so still not good enough lol. I'll have to look it up right now and see if we still give aid to a literal terrorist govt. I know India and the US are friends but we should be closer friend imo. We have way more in common than we do with Pakistanis. As a group the two countries could carry out some successful COIN ops. We both have a common enemy, radical islamic terrorists, China, and Pakistan should be the third. Wonder why we didn't tell Pak about the Bin Laden raid lol? Of course, I.S.I. would have told him and he would have disappeared for good!!
Edit: Well, our aid was around 1.3 billion to Pakistan and now it's under 200 million which is a move in the right direction. Next step: cutting that to no military aid and only medical or food donations. Even then, they should be able to fend for themselves. We have veterans of the war on terror living on US streets dying from drug overdoses and suicide hourly!!! Why is Biden and and nobody in my govt. Trying to help the homeless veterans and homeless in general instead of sending billions to countries that either hate us or would stab us in the back any day of the week. And here we are sending billions upon billions to Ukraine when we have starving American citizens!!! Or helping illegal immigrants before American citizens!!! Almost everyone in the govt. (Especially the left) should be absolutely ashamed of their inaction and complicity in such travesties. People can say what they want about Trump but at least he cared about Americans first and not giving aid to Israel, Pak, Saudis,.etc. sorry for the tangent but the government pisses me off!!

Facts revealed in the recent war in Ukraine:
South Korea has the world's No. 1 artillery power, and South Korea currently has more shells than the U.S. and NATO combined, which is more than the number of shells held by the former Soviet Union in its heyday and is the world's largest shell-held country.
South Korea is producing 150,000 shells a year at a low rate, and can produce up to 500,000 rounds.
Many Korean men often refer to the Korean Ministry of Defense(KUKBANGBU) as "POBANGBU (Ministry of artillery(PO))".
