What are the employment roles of women in the SK Forces?
From which roles are they excluded?
Yeah those rations.
I think a lot of that stuff isn't different, it's just that it's been packed with a brand new heating device. About time there were options for warming stuff other than open fire or a running truck engine. Ever had the ones with the rice and stuff while cold? Absolutely atrocious. I tried heating it up by putting it under my shirt. Didn't work too good.
Still you gotta eat.

South Korean maritime policemen conduct a drill on a patrol ship near Yeonpyeong Island near the western maritime border between the two Koreas, 11 km (7 miles) from the North, about 115 km (71 miles) northwest of Seoul, June 11, 2009.
Why the steel helmets? Does the equipment seem a bit outdated, or is it just me?

About self sharpening tungsten rounds (from Wiki article on K2 Black Panther):
Munitions
The K2's primary anti-tank munition is an indigenously developed and improved tungsten APFSDS kinetic energy penetrator. This new munition offers significantly greater penetration than the current generation of tungsten rounds through better heat treatment of the tungsten alloy and a technique referred to as the "self-sharpening process". The latter works by making the tungsten core sharpen rather than deform during the penetration of armor. For attacking unhardened targets, the K2 can use a newly designed multi-purpose HEAT chemical energy round, which is similar to the U.S. M830A1 HEAT MP-T, providing good offensive capabilities against personnel, unarmored and lightly armored vehicles on the ground as well as low-flying helicopters.
I wonder if this engine is based on Korean rocket company C&Space's technology. News says that they are trying to sell methane fueled engines to NASA.Originally Posted by blue_shark
