The main objective of this research is to propose some
directions concerning logistic development for the Republic
of Korea Army (ROKA). In particular, it concerns modern
concepts such as integrated logistics support (ILS)
.
Traditionally, Korean logistics has been treated as
secondary. But, in the current situation, attention must be
placed on logistics.
This thesis introduces historical and geographical
circumstances of the Korean peninsula and appraises military
problems, especially logistics. It compares South and
North Korea's military powers and then analyzes the relationship
between EOK and US. It proceeds with setting the
concept of modern military logistics and explaining some ILS
aspects concretely. It gives insights to logistics in the
system life cycle including approaches to the cost-side as
well as to effectiveness. For the decision-maker, the lifecycle
cost (LCC) model should be considered during the
acquisition cycle to assure proper logistics development.
