The Ministry of National Defense has begun building a Defense Sovereign AI system to apply defense-specific AI models to command and control systems and weaponry. The government plans to allocate approximately 200 billion Korean won for AI projects next year, double the previous year's budget. Samsung SDS, Naver Cloud and NHN Cloud are positioning themselves for the Joint Command and Control System (KCCS), which will analyze battlefield data in real time within a closed network. Samsung SDS is combining cloud, 5G, generative AI and analytics platforms, while Naver Cloud is building a dedicated defense AX team and pursuing an independent data-and-model architecture. NHN Cloud is supplying private cloud and Desktop-as-a-Service infrastructure for the AI Commander system and participating in a defense large language model project.
