    Just to keep it simple with the base K1 and K1A1 the whole family is: K1: Base model, 105mm KM68A1 K1A1: Base model, 120mm KM256, improved commander's sight the KCPS K1E1: Upgraded K1, retains the KM68A1, "digital battlefield control system", improved IFF system with an IFF interrogator above the gun (though not always mounted), driver's front and rear cameras, driver's thermal camera (though not always mounted), GPS K1A2: Upgraded K1A1, retains the KM256, "digital battlefield control system", improved IFF system with an IFF interrogator above the gun (though not always mounted), driver's front and rear cameras, driver's thermal camera (though not always mounted), GPS There might be more I am missing but most of these features are visually identifiable.

    7th Infantry Division K1s, K808s, and KLTVs during a recent training event. Should note these K1s are equipped with the K16D which is serving to be the replacement of the M60D as the loaders pintle mounted weapon on Korean tanks.

    I honestly have no idea. It was a footnote during EDEX 2021 when the news was made about a supposed deal for the K2, very much overshadowed by the K9 deal. But I haven't seen any follow up on it from official sources or secondary sources since. I guess time will tell.

    According to Yonhap citing DAPA, South Korea and Egypt signed a deal for an order of K9s and a technology transfer worth $1.65 Billion. https://en.yna.co.kr/view/AEN20220201001900325

    Not sure the reason but they don't have the Protector RWS mounted on either K2s during this event. (should note that up until this point since the K2s arrived in Norway neither K2 from what I've seen has been equipped with it even though the K2NO displayed at ADEX 2021 was fitted with the Protector RWS) K2NO Display from ADEX 2021 with the Protector RWS

    Just going through some older documentaries on the ROK Army Consolidated Maintenance Depot and discovered what I would consider some neat shots of the K1. Something that you don't get to see clearly often is the hydropneumatic suspension on the K1.

    Just digging around on it it's all really interesting. There aren't many details in the documents of the ERCA II's projectiles or gun is but there are some crumbs of info:

    It seems that a K2NO has made it to Norway for trials. Not sure if the two K2NOs were offloaded or if it was just the one but I guess we'll see more soon.

    Here are the other two pages from this IDR article:

    Absolutely. Korea awarded a development contract with Chrysler (eventually became General Dynamics Land Systems hence on most pictures of the XK1s have GDLS marked on them) for a tank which would eventually become the K1. You can get a general overview of the development from this page scan from Janes IDR: XK1 PV-1 and PV-2:

    K9A1 at EDEX 2021. Something that I haven't seen on the K9A1s before is that sort of camera cluster or whatever it may be located above the gun.
