North Korea has already been using underground space for military purposes for decades, and is currently developing it as a key base for operating asymmetric forces. Accordingly, the special operations teams need fighting methods, weapon systems, and organizational structures to carry out subterranean operations. This paper presents an unmanned system platform for subterranean operations that combines tilt-rotor type drones, high-tech sensors, communication repeaters, and small robots, and a system that can be operated by special operation teams. Based on this, the survivability of the special operations teams can be strengthened and operational utility can be maximized. Afterwards, if Special Warfare Command collects collective intelligence based on the ideas related to subterranean operations presented in this paper and further develops these, it will be possible to drive subterranean operations doctrines, weapon systems, and organizational structures optimized for the battlefield on the Korean Theater of Operations in the near future.

ROK has a lot to benchmark from how Ukraine is fighting Russia back with its tactical wins. They have taken a targeted strategy to strike Russia's top generals with high precision. To carry out this strategy, Ukraine is operating a Special Operations Force, which utilizes US/NATO forces, civilian and own resources for maximum impact. Of note, they utilize Starlink for seamless connection from detection, decision-making to strike to maximize operational efficiency. As ROK faces security threat of weapons of mass destruction, Ukraine's military intelligence organization set-up, weapons system and operations can provide some guidance on how to leverage its various SOF as well.

The naval surface vessels, which were often exposed to harsh marine environment, tended to be corrosive due to military operations on various sea-areas and courses. Although R.O.K Navy applied various methods to protect further corrosion, the hull corrosion occurred due to cavitation were found on the naval surface vessels at regular and occasional docking. Hull corrosion was a critical factor directly to affect the lifetime of ships and their operational capabilities adversely. In this paper, EH 2350, which was the main anticorrosion paint used by R.O.K. Navy, was compared with DuraTough DL by used by the U.S Navy to collect materials related to anti-corrosion paint. In addition, the paint compatibility verification was conducted through wear abrasion test. Assuming that it was exposed to sea-environment various both abrasion cycle and weight for objective verification. by varying both the abrasion cycles and weights. In this study, the reliability of the EH 2350 conformity, which was used in Naval surface vessels, was secured.
