During the ADEX 2025 exhibition in Seoul, South Korea, Marduk Technologies and Hanwha Aerospace signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to strengthen cooperation between the defence industries of Estonia and South Korea.
The MoU was signed by Mr. Leet Rauno Lember, Chief Operating Officer of Marduk Technologies, and Mr. Kim Dong Hyeon, Head of the Land Systems Business Group at Hanwha Aerospace.
Through this agreement, the two companies agreed to cooperate on the joint development of a Counter-Unmanned Aerial System (C-UAS) integrated with the IFV for the Estonian market. In addition, both sides will explore various opportunities for joint technological advancement in the broader field of defence research and development (R&D).
As part of this cooperation, Marduk Technologies will contribute its expertise in passive optical detection, an essential element of multi-layered C-UAS solutions designed to enhance situational awareness and protection against emerging aerial threats.
“Partnering with Hanwha Aerospace, one of the largest defence primes in Asia, is an important milestone for Marduk Technologies,” said Leet Rauno Lember, COO of Marduk Technologies. “This cooperation reflects our shared vision for advancing C-UAS capabilities and fostering innovation through international collaboration.”
Marduk Technologies looks forward to working closely with our partners at Hanwha Aerospace to develop innovative solutions that address the evolving challenges of modern air defense.
