In 2006, the Republic of Korea announced it would create its own indigenous missile defense system, the Korean Air and Missile Defense System (KAMD). The Republic of Korea has hosted missile defense systems since the United States stationed the 1st Battalion, 43rd Air Defense Artillery in the ROK in 1994 in response to North Korea’s threats to suspend the armistice on the Korean Peninsula.
Republic of Korea’s Ballistic Missile Defense Capabilities System South Korea elected not to join the US-led global missile defense system but has in the meantime developed a defense entity similar to the Missile Defense Agency in the United States and the Missile Defence Centre from the United Kingdom. China has recently urged North Korea to disengage in the programs alleged to be building ballistic missiles capable of carrying a nuclear warhead.
In recent years, it has relied on the United Nations Security Council to help reign in the dictatorship to the North. The Republic of Korea is to a great extent dependent on U.S. The geostrategic position of the Republic of Korea (ROK/South Korea) is difficult given its proximity to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK/North Korea), which may be fast approaching ballistic missile program readiness – as well as developing a weapons of mass destruction program.
