Purpose: The study focused on localization of the enhanced applique armor kit (EAAK), which are applied to Korea Assault Amphibious Vehicle (KAAV). Methods: For this propose, we developed the manufacturing technology by analyzing the original products. Considering the conditions used in the military, we made the test evaluation criteria. Results: In results, The EAAK developed through this research performs equivalent performance compared to Rafael, Co. Thus, It is possible not only stably supply a parts of EAAK for maintenance, but also to reduce costs due to import substitution effect. Conclusion: It is expected that the manufacturing technology and test evaluation criteria accumulated through this study can be used in the localization of similar parts.
