The K2 Black Panther is one of the most advanced main battle tank in the world, outclassing anything North Korea or China have. Furthermore it is the most expensive main battle tank to date, overtaking the Japanese Type 90 MBT.
The K2 Black Panther main battle tank evolved from the XK2 programme. This next-generation MBT was developed in South Korea using indigenous technology only. Its development began in 1995. First prototype was revealed in 2007. Since then this tank was trialed and evaluated. Production contract for the first 100 K2 tanks was signed in 2014. In 2016 a first batch of 100 tanks was reportedly delivered and additional tanks were being built. South Korean army has a requirement for around 300 of these new tanks. The K2 Black Panther will supplement in service the upgraded K1 and K1A1 main battle tanks. In 2022 Poland made a deal to acquire 980 K2 tanks. First K2 tanks were delivered to Poland during the same year.
