On May 14, the South Korean military will conduct a training exercise to prepare for a situation in which a large number of North Korean aerial bodies simultaneously penetrate their airspace.

The exercise will involve an integrated response from air, ground, and naval defense forces.

According to the Republic of Korea Air Force, conducted in the forward area, the joint training exercise will involve the Air Force Operations Command, the Army Ground Operations Command, the Capital Defense Command, the Navy Operations Command, and the Marine Corps Northwest Island Defense Command.

The Republic of Korea Air Force conducted its training on May 13.

North Korea’s large-scale aerial bodies include all possible provocations in the air, including manned and unmanned aircraft, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles.

The training will simulate around 800 simulated targets as aerial bodies to improve actual joint response capabilities.

In response to North Korea’s large-scale aerial body infiltration, about 30 fighter aircraft including F-35A, F-15K, KF-16, and various military air defense forces such as Patriot, Cheongung, Aegis Sejong the Great-class destroyer, Falcon, Biho, and Cheonma will respond at different altitudes in their respective areas.

The training will begin when targets appearing to be a southward movement of North Korean large-scale aerial bodies and ballistic missile launches are detected at the Air Force Central Air Defense Control Center (MCRC).

South Korean forces will then sequentially intercept the North Korean aerial bodies and check the procedures for performing air defense duties at different altitudes.

The training will conclude with the fighter aircraft assigned to the air defense mission, annihilating the remaining North Korean targets.

The Operations Command explained, “Through this training, we plan to strengthen joint response capabilities against all aerial threats that our military needs to prepare for. This is to analyze not only recent enemy provocation trends but also surprise attacks like Hamas, and recent aerial bombings between Iran and Israel.”
