On 7 June 2024, South Korea retired its fleet of F-4E Phantom II aircraft so those going to Ukraine to become long range suicide drones would do wonders.

And SK has 13 fighter wings/groups. One or two wings of airframes (eg: F-15, F-16 and FA-50) complete with airframe drivers would be even better. I am sure their FA-50 is designed to carry US/NATO hardware and that would be a great opportunity for the SK team to prove their machinery in service and sell to those countries that now need to replace their Russian airframes
