Jassim bin Muhammad Al-Mannai, commander of the Qatar Emiri Air Force, during the Dubai Airshow in the United Arab Emirates, Monday (local time). KAI is participating in the aviation event, scheduled to run until Friday, with its Surion multirole utility helicopter and Light Armed Helicopter (LAH). The Surion has been deployed to the Republic of Korea Army since 2012, with variant models being delivered to the National Police Agency and the Marine Corps. The LAH is designed to replace the ROK Army's aging 500MD and AH-1S Cobra attack helicopters, with delivery scheduled for late 2024. Courtesy of Korea Aerospace Industries
