HD Hyundai Heavy Industries selected for KSS-II Submarine Mid-Life Upgrade (MLU) Program
We are proud to announce that HD Hyundai Heavy Industries (HD HHI) has been selected as the preferred bidder for the KSS-II Sohn Won-il–class (Type 214) submarine Mid-Life Upgrade (MLU) program by the Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA) of the Republic of Korea.
This marks the first MLU program on a submarine platform for HD HHI, building on our experience with the successful early delivery of ROKS Yoon Bonggil’s overhaul earlier this year.
We are proud to collaborate with LIG Nex1, a proven leader in submarine system modernization, notably for the KSS-I Jangbogo-class upgrade.
With the Republic of Korea Navy transitioning towards greater private-sector involvement in fleet sustainment, this program reinforces HD HHI’s growing role as a trusted partner in the defense MRO sector. We look forward to contributing to the Navy’s long-term operational readiness and technological edge.
