Anyone out there have good reference material or a website that looks at the South Korean military from the Korean War until today?
I have a few things on the origins pre-Korean War and during the war. However, I need some post-war and Vietnam material as well.
Thanks,
Jim
This article summarises today's South Korean forces and how they compare to North Korea's.
Basically Nth Korea's armed forces are bigger, but it's mostly obsolete equipment-

Excerpt- "North Korea’s armed forces might be immense, but their weapons and equipment are largely obsolete.
On paper, the Stalinist state’s air force possesses 563 combat-capable aircraft; in reality, every one of these planes was grounded for a short period in 2014 thanks to problems with maintenance and serviceability.
North Korea remains reliant on a predominantly obsolescent equipment inventory across all three services, is the verdict of the International Institute for Strategic Studies."
