Now, South Korea is a global weapons producer and seller, reflecting the nation's dramatic economic and diplomatic evolution since the 1975 fundraising for American F-4 jets.
South Korea is making a big push to engage globally. They're going from a big buyer to not just a maker but a designer of aircraft.
With the KF-21 Boramae, South Korea hopes to provide a cheaper alternative to the U.S.-made F-35, marking its evolution in military innovation.
This military advancement is part of South Korea's ambition to enhance its defense role amidst increasing threats from North Korea and regional power dynamics.
