South Korea's technologically ambitious defense ministry aims to test a scaled demonstrator for a stealthy combat drone by 2013, extending the country's expertise in unmanned aircraft and hedging against cancellation of the KF-X fighter program.

With this project, South Korea will be within 10 years of Britain and Germany in flying substantial development hardware for unmanned combat aircraft. South Korea may be ahead of Japan, which has announced no such development effort.
