KF-21's First Mass-Produced Unit Completes Test Flight Successfully

The first mass-produced unit of Korea's supersonic fighter jet, the KF-21 Boramae, successfully completed its production test flight on the 15th.

The KF-21's first mass-produced unit performed this test flight just 22 days after its rollout, a procedure necessary to move towards full-scale mass production.

This production test flight was conducted under the management of the Defense Acquisition Program Administration, not Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI). This is part of the final inspection process for the KF-21's future operational deployment.
