DSK is Asia’s largest drone-focused exhibition, hosted by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy; the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport; the Ministry of National Defense; the Korea Aerospace Administration; and the city of Busan.
This year’s event centers on unmanned aircraft technology and includes companies in aerospace, defense, carbon neutrality and geospatial information, as well as firms with AI-based convergence technologies. Participating countries increased to 23 from 15.
In the drone zone, the company will show for the first time in South Korea a physical-AI subsonic unmanned aircraft it is developing with U.S. AI defense company Anduril Industries. Also on display are an AI small multipurpose unmanned aircraft, a small strike unmanned aircraft, a communications relay drone, swarm-flight drone technology, and aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) based on swarm-flight drone technology.
In the AAM zone, Korean Air will present its in-house AAM traffic management and operations control system, ACROSS, along with a mock-up aircraft from Archer Aviation, a U.S. urban air mobility company that signed an AAM development cooperation memorandum of understanding with Korean Air last year.
Korean Air said it will also hold cooperation events alongside the exhibition, starting with an unmanned aircraft technology seminar Tuesday to introduce its capabilities and business roadmap. It plans an AAM technology seminar co-hosted with Archer on Wednesday and is planning MOUs with global AAM companies.
“This DSK participation is a good opportunity to inform the broader industry about Korean Air’s AI software-based unmanned aircraft capabilities, which are currently a key production focus, and the latest technologies related to next-generation air mobility,” a company official said. “Korean Air will continue taking on challenges across various fields to grow into a world-class integrated aerospace company.”
