Poongsan, a leading defence company in South Korea, develops military and sporting ammunition. It is the second South Korean cluster munitions company, after Hanwha.
The South Korean company Poongsan has been involved in the production of two types 155 mm artillery cluster munitions: DP-ICM TP/K308 and DP-ICM K310.
Poongsang's website describes the Dual Purpose Improved Conventional Munitions (DP-ICM) TP/K308. It is a 155 mm artillery shell, said to contain 88 "bomblets", e.g. small, explosive submunitions that characterise cluster munitions.
Until recently, Poongsan also produced the DP-ICM K310 - a projectile with 49 submunitions with self-destruct fuze, which is co-produced with Pakistan Ordnance Factories. First production came off the line in April 2008.
