Recently, the guided rocket independently developed by South Korea passed the test of the US military. South Korea is trying to use the US military's signature to promote the export of its own equipment and sell this guided rocket system called "Sky Bow" to the United States or other countries. It is reported that this missile can attack 10 targets at the same time within a radius of 8 kilometers. So can South Korea’s wish come true? What is the technical level of this rocket system developed by South Korea?
It is understood that the "Sky Bow" guided rocket system made in South Korea is named the last guided rocket. In fact, this weapon system is not as powerful as its name describes, and is actually similar to a small missile. It mainly targets some small mobile targets on the water, such as speedboats, fishing boats, etc., and some small low-value targets.
Since the targets of this weapon system are relatively small and cheap, it directly leads to the cost control requirements for this weapon. In other words, this weapon system will be relatively cheap and the technology it uses will be relatively simple. We can also see that the range of this missile is relatively close, only eight kilometers. Such attack distance is for naval battles in the traditional sense. I'm afraid it doesn't work much. As we all know, the distance of modern naval warfare is as little as dozens of kilometers and as much as more than one hundred kilometers, which is the main attack distance of naval warfare.
From this point of view, this "Sky Bow" missile from South Korea can only play its role when it targets some special scenarios and some special targets.
South Korea's weapon has passed the comparison experiment of the US military. In fact, it is very likely that this missile will be sold to the United States. There are two factors here. On the one hand, South Korea is the "little brother" of the United States after all. The United States is in the world's leading position in military weapons. South Korea's missiles have passed the US experiment, which shows the practicality of South Korea. It is also the United States who helped South Korea make an "advertising" and make a publicity campaign. It will be for South Korea to promote it to the world in the future and sell this weapon, and it will have a relatively good-looking basic image. We can see that in recent years, South Korea has put in a lot of effort in weapons exports and has made great achievements.
On the other hand, compared with naval combat, this missile is a small radius attack weapon, and its scope of use has great limitations. But because of this, it is more likely that the United States will buy it. We all know that the United States is a fleet of two oceans, with global combat readiness and cross-ocean combat. So far, no weapons are equipped specifically for this type of small, mobile targets. Moreover, this type of weapon demand is very small for the US military. If it develops it again, it will invest too much in budget. So, South Korea is likely to sell its missiles to the United States and even other countries.
