Hanwha Aerospace has announced a significant expansion of its 'Mutual Growth Fund' from KRW 50 billion to KRW 150 billion during a declaration ceremony at its Changwon Plant on December 3. This initiative aims to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the K-defense industry facing challenges from high interest rates and rising raw material costs.

The fund will provide essential resources for facility investments and operational stability. Additionally, the newly introduced 'Innovation Benefit Sharing System' will allow partner companies to engage in advanced R&D and domestic production of core components with full financial support from Hanwha Aerospace. This strategy is intended to enhance technological independence and strengthen the global competitiveness of the Korean defense sector.
