The K808 Command Vehicle recently finished development. Research and development began in 2017 and production of the command vehicles will begin in 2022.

Hanwha Defense just published a video showing some of their RWS offerings. Vehicles worth note are the Tigon and KAAV-7A1 equipped with RWSes. Both vehicles with the RWSes have been showcased at previous defense expos, though to my knowledge this is the first footage of them being used.

Over the years, more and more modifications appear on these T-80Us. The army doesnt make the job easier for a scale model builder :) I really want to build an 1/35 T-80 in korean colors, it looks incredibly good. 

A little bit back to T-80 reliability. If there is a lack of spare parts, why not produce them locally? I highly doubt it would be a challenge for such an advanced industry.
