SEOUL, June 10 (Xinhua) -- South Korea was expected to sign an export deal of K2 tanks worth about 6 billion U.S. dollars with Poland in late June, Yonhap news agency said Tuesday, citing multiple government sources.
The deal, which would be the country's biggest single arms export contract, will be inked in Poland late this month.
Under the contract, Poland will be supplied with a total of 180 K2 tanks including 117 units manufactured by South Korean defense company Hyundai Rotem and 63 units produced by Poland's state-owned PGZ.
The Asian country signed the first export deal with Poland in 2022 to supply the first batch of 180 K2 tanks.
In the same year, South Korea inked a series of deals with Poland to export K2 tanks, K9 self-propelled howitzers and FA-50 light attack aircraft. ■
