Spent the last week down just outside of Daejeon, Korea at the 67th Korea Armed Forces Day and 13th Ground Forces Festival. Lots of military hardware and warbird flyovers, even a few paratrooper drops. The first few pics are of an M813 clone (yes made in Korea) an ex-US Huey and Cobra (both of which are still used over here).

A few more. I think that some of these frames are ex-US and were reworked by the Koreans, but was not able to verify. From what I heard all the powerplants are Korean (no C turbos here) and they still used a standard transmission. On a few of the M35 clones they has the exhaust go through a few mufflers and go out the rear.

Here are some of the M715 style clones and a few upgrades on an M35 or M813 clone (can't remember which it was).

Here is a few of Korean armor. One is an ex-US M48 (still used) and the other two are Korean built MBTs. A Few Self-Propelled Artillery pieces as well (one US two KA). An AA track and ACE as well. They were giving rides to the local kids in APCs.
