A Close Look To A KDX-II Class (Part 2)

Here are some more photos of the South Korean KDX-II class destroyer DDG-979 Gang Gam Chan.

N70_6931 — Mk 141 launchers for RGM-84 Harpoon Block 1C missiles

N70_6964 — Mk 45 127 mm/62 Mod 4 gun

N70_6965 — Mk 41 Mod 2 VLS. The 32 cell VLS is loaded with a mix of SM-2MR (Block IIIA) SAM and ASROC VLS missiles

N70_6952 — The KDX-2 class ships are the first ones in South Korean Navy with female accommodation.
