In 2022, the two countries signed a $13.7 billion arms deal -- Seoul’s largest to date -- which included South Korean K2 tanks and fighter jets for Poland, Ukraine’s ally and neighbour.
While the agency did not disclose the amount, it said if signed, the deal would be the “largest ever based on a single weapon system”.
Yonhap reported that the signing ceremony is scheduled to take place in late June in Poland, but the Defense Acquisition Program Administration said the “signing schedule for the second contract has not yet been finalised”.
The contract was originally expected to be signed late last year, according to Yonhap, but was delayed due to issues including political turmoil in South Korea following the brief declaration of martial law in December.
It has signed major arms deals with countries such as Poland and Romania, including the export of K9 Howitzers and Chunmoo missile systems.
The nuclear-armed North, which technically remains at war with the South, has recently bolstered military ties with Russia.
Pyongyang sent at least 14,000 troops to support Moscow’s war in Ukraine, and officially declared the South an enemy state.
