In this study, systems and procedures for improving the research and development and purchasing projects for defense specifications were investigated, and the current situation was analyzed in terms of the disclosure and establishment of defense specifications. I would like to discuss the measures that need to be taken to improve the specification affairs of our defense sector in order to improve the production quality of military supplies. It should be noted that it is necessary to establish specifications and procedures for improving the quality of domestically purchased military supplies. Therefore, it is highly imperative to systematically establish detailed performance, and miscellaneous specifications in order to actively respond to the rapid development of superior private technologies. In addition, the barriers in the entry of the defense industry should be removed through active disclosure of the specification data, and the opportunities for participation should be expanded to promote a smooth follow-up logistics support and to improve the quality of military supplies

Methods that industrial spies use to smuggle core technology out are becoming more intelligent, technological, and complex, thus resulting in more serious damages. In particular, defense industries in which involve national core technology as well as institutions including labor force are industries that are in a greater need of the convergence security. Defense Industry develops, experiments, and produces defense security supplies for national security protection. Defense industry involves a number of security elements such as military secret, industrial secret, core technology labor force, defense industry supply, critical national facility, and information communication system. Defense industry security is a complex of military security and industrial security which is convergence security that integrates all security elements of defense industry. Therefore, defense industry security is a typical ideal model for convergence security. Research on defense industry security is relatively insufficient compared to research of security in other industrial fields. In order to prevent core technology of denfese industry from leaking and to protect technical professionals and institutions, research and action on defense industry security from convergence security perspective are therefore essential at this point of time.

Learning rate is generally applied to estimate an appropriate production labor cost. Learning effect is obtained from repetitive work during the production period under 3 assumptions ; homogeneous production, same producer, quantity measure in continuous unit. However, production breaks occur frequently in Korean defense industry environment because of budget constraint and annual requirements. In this case previous learning effect can not be applied due to learning loss. This paper proposed the application of learning rate when a production break occurs in Korea defense industry. To obtain a learning loss, we surveyed various learning loss factors for different production breaks(6, 12, 18 months) from 4 defense industry companies. Then, we estimate the first unit labor hours in re-production phase after production break using Anderlohr method and Retrograde method with the result of the survey. This work is the first attempt to show a method which defines and evaluates the learning loss factors in Korean defense industry environment.

The improved properties of surface layer can be achieved by so-called "new salt bath nitriding(NSBN)", which has been developed by a domestic company. This process based upon modified traditional salt bath nitriding process, increased hardenability with minimum toughness deterioration. This process also offers not only less white layer surfaces but also more eco-friendly one. That is, NSBN is the new eco-friendly surface treatment technology removing harmful $CN^-$ and toxic gas. According to the research of applying NSBN to Cr-Mo-V steel which has been used in defense industry, showed the improved result of wear resistance and surface hardening than non-coated condition. In further, we expect NSBN to curtail expenses and productivity improvement applied to the various defense industry parts.

This study analyzes the neutron shielding performance of Soft Magnetic Material and proposes a military application. In general, the military protection facility has been constructed with thick concrete, so Soft Magnetic Material, consisting of boron, was used with concrete in this study. To do so, Monte-Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) was applied to simulate the Watt-fission neutron spectrum of ²³⁵U and ²³⁹Pu. As a result, a configuration of polyethylene and Soft Magnetic Material is evaluated about four times better than borated polyethylene concerning the atomic weight of boron inside each shielding material. Also, when a nuclear weapon explosion is simulated in MCNP, 1 mm of Soft Magnetic Material with 20 cm of concrete shows about 55% more additional neutron shielding performance compared to when Soft Magnetic Material is not used. In this work, the neutron shielding performance of Soft Magnetic Material could be identified and Soft Magnetic Material would be useful for neutron shielding if applicable to concrete structure.

Purpose: Although the price reduction policy is established for military supplies, it is more focused on general military items. Therefore, it is hard to apply the current price reduction policy directly to the major weapon system. The purpose of this study is to develop an evaluation model which generates appropriate outputs for price reduction of military supplies. Methods: To improve the current policy, we first analyze the relevant policies of price reduction of similar organizations. We gather the opinions of related organization through survey including DAPA, Logistics Command, DTaQ and Defense industry companies. Then, we develop a price reduction model based on the analytic hierarchical process(AHP) method to find out important factors for price reduction. Results: The results of AHP analysis show that the important factors when applying price reduction of military supplies. From the analysis, the proposed method effectively generates the amounts of price reduction for the nonconformance items. Conclusion: The results of this research will be used as guidelines to improve military supplies policy of price reduction.

The purpose of this study is to examine the satisfaction level for military food services as well as to find out influential factors which affect satisfaction. The questionnaire survey was conducted by 111 soldiers. In the satisfaction analysis for military food services, 69.3% of soldiers presented positive response. There are, however, some differences in satisfaction between corporal and private groups as well as corporal and sergeant groups. Overall, the corporal group shows low satisfaction for military food services. To identify influential factors for satisfaction of military food services, we considered various factors: tasty, nutrition, quantity, hygienic conditions, environment, ambient factors, waiting time, presence of desert, menu, and kindness of a cook. Satisfaction analysis shows that main significant factors are tasty and quantity of the food. Thus, tasty and quantity of the food are need to be consistently monitored and improved to increase the satisfaction of military food services.
