Turkey and Germany agreed to a licence production of the MG1 and the G3 in Turkey. Also 1.000 mortars were bought.

ooc: Then that is even more illogical. South Korea is almost entirely a US arms user BC, it is better to have unified ammo supply etc, best quality, and it is the US that will come and save south Korea from the Hordes of Chinese Communists. There are far better tanks that can be bought and gotten from aid from the US than outdated napkinwaffe. Also West Germany does not have the capacity to produce large numbers of tanks at this time so it is more moot.

OOC: Hmm, buying US Shermans in the future or having an defense industry established in Korea I wonder which is better for the RoK

No, M48s. Also South Korea is still destroyed from WW2, not really having an arms industry capacity atm. Also the Napkinwaffe is just that, useless outdated designs.

OOC: The German firms could be ready for producing in 1951 in Korea if they start in the beginning of 1950.

OOC: Huh? Its kind of pointless to build up a industry you already have and
in what way are E-50 more outdated or useless than the US M4 and M26. The M48 is far into the future

OOC: The M47 and M48 are not that far into the future.
The difference between napkinwaffe and the real interim surplus tanks is that the real tanks can be delivered immediately; the theoretical designs take time, and by the time they enter anything approaching series production, they are much older.

OOC: Which is why the RoK have accepted the M4 and M26 for now, the M47
was just catching up to modern design and cost scarce $$$ while the "Napkinwaffe" is hardly more backwards than the M47 and will be built in Korea or is there anything US is superior rule?

OOC: To conclude: There is no rule of US superiority.
However, it makes more logistic sense to keep equipment sources as straightforward as possible - consider such things as spare parts, manuals and servicing.
M47s and M48s can be built in Korea also. There is absolutely no reason why they couldn't be.
M48s from 1952, or even very late 51. The same timeframe as the E Series, which were no longer on the cutting edge at the end of WW2.
It is your individual choice as a nation. 100%
However, some things make more logistical sense, and logistics is the foundation of modern warfare.

Cheers,
Simon
