I hope this email finds you well and in good health. The Republic of Korea purchased a number of Roman products under previous administrations to fulfill our service needs. The ROK Army continues to evaluate these weapon systems and with plans for future procurement possible we hope that a Domestic Production Right(s) (DPR) agreement could be signed. Our Government is specifically looking at a DPR for the IVECO LMV and B-1 Centuraro. Additionally, the Republic of Korea as part of this agreement was seeking to be able to domestically produce the Janus sensor mast. We look forward to your response and hope to come to an amicable agreement on this DPR swap to allow the ROK to continue to modify, upgrade, and develop from these products future systems.
Signed with sincerity,
Kim Jae-beom
