At the heart of the parade was South Korea's threeaxis system,.. which ties together three military concepts, that counter North Korea’s growing nuclear and missile threats.
One of the key weapons mobilized to highlight the system was, the country's homegrown longrange surfacetoair missile, designed to shoot down North Korea's ballistic missiles.

The country's domestically developed ballistic missile, the Hyunmoo, was also revealed to the public for the very first time.
The missile is known to have the ability to strike all areas of North Korea with very high precision.

Surveillance drones were also deployed,. and the Navy's cuttingedge Aegis destroyer, Jeongjo the Great, took part through Augmented Reality.
