KD III Class Destroyer
Also under the name of “Sejong the Great”, South Korea’s guided-missile destroyer is often referred to as a close double to the previous Arleigh Burke Class Destroyer. The South Korean Navy has received 3 already and are planing to receive an additional 3. Apart from protecting South Korea’s coasts, it has also enabled the Korean Navy to become a blue-water navy, meaning that it can operate far from its own borders.
