This post is trending because it taps into national pride regarding Korea's defense industry (K-Defense) and sparks a debate between raw technical superiority and practical considerations like cost, production speed, and logistics, especially relevant with global conflicts highlighting the importance of military hardware.
TOT(동시탄착) 능력부터 보면
여러 발을 쏴서 동시에 표적에 떨어뜨리는 기술인데,
PzH 2000은 5발, K9은 3발.
빠른 사격 속도도 PzH 2000이 8.4초에 3발이고 K9은 15초에 3발.
거의 두 배 차이남.
탄약이랑 인원도 차이가 있는데
PzH 2000은 탄 60발 탑재에 승무원 2명으로 운용 가능.
K9(A1 기준)은 48발에 승무원 5명.
장기전에서 인원 손실 리스크가 전혀 다른 게임
실전에서도 PzH 2000이 증명을 해버림
우크라이나에 공여된 PzH 2000이 포신 설계 수명(2,000발)의 두 배가 넘는
4,800발을 쏴도 멀쩡히 버텼다는거

독일제가 더 좋은데 왜 K9자주포가 잘 팔리냐?
생산력, 납기력 따라올 수가 없음ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
🇰🇷 KOREAN REACTIONS 10
Anyone with a bit of knowledge wouldn't say the German howitzer is worse than our K9. It's far superior in performance, but the problem is the high price and delivery issues... No matter how good a weapon is, it's useless if you can't get your hands on it when you need it.
Hanwha is developing a wheeled K9, and if that comes out properly, it might just eat up the entire self-propelled howitzer market!
What's needed on the battlefield isn't one luxury item, but five mass-produced units!
Whoa... so the German one's performance is still top-tier. And that's without any upgrades?
Just as it's expensive, it also costs a lot to maintain and repair.
It's hard to compare just by specs; there are so many factors like the battlefield environment.
It's the Daiso of the defense industry, lol.
Of course, the German one is better in terms of performance. But when you consider the price and delivery speed, lolllll.
There's a reason why the Königstiger (a powerful German WWII tank) was so strong and well-built, but still got overwhelmed by waves of T-34s (mass-produced Soviet tanks). You need to at least match the number of cannons. No matter how good one guy is, it's tough to fight and win against two. Precision only matters when you can supply everyone in the necessary combat unit, when you can churn them out until you're saturated with personnel. Before that, it's a waste. Conversely, no matter how many you have, if there's no one to fire them, it's meaningless. And that's the situation for the Korean military these days, right?
They say the minimum crew is 5, but in reality, due to personnel shortages, it can run with just 3: the gun chief, driver, and assistant gunner, lolllll.
