40 F-16 block32 were introduced and in operation by the Republic of Korea Air Force. DACC Carbon completed the localization of its carbon brake discs in 1998 and has been exclusively supplying them to the ROKAF since 1999. It has been in operation for more than 20 years and has fully validated our product’s performance, reliability, and durability.
Since its localization, starting with the export to the Greek Air Force in 2001, we exported to Royal Thai Air Force, Royal Norwegian Air Force, Indonesian Air Force, and Chilean Air Force. We are gradually expanding its market to all air forces operating F-16s.

Followed by the successful F-16 block32 carbon brake disc development in 1998, we additionally developed carbon brake discs for F-16 Block52 in 2001. The F-16 Block52 is a fighter jet licensed in Korea through the Korean Fighter Program(KFP) and the ROKAF has introduced and operated 140 of them as the main fighter jets.
Since its localization in 2001, the carbon brake discs of DACC Carbon has been operated and evaluated for 20 years and proved its performance and durability. As a result, we are exporting them to the overseas Air Forces operating F-16 Block52, along with the carbon brake discs of F-16 Block32.

With the localized technology for carbon brake discs of F-16 Block32, Block52, and the development and production experience for carbon brake discs of T-50, DACC Carbon with our American partner company started developing carbon brake discs of Challenger 601 by Bombardier, the business jet manufacturer.
As a result of years of continuous efforts, in 2016, DACC Carbon obtained the Parts Manufacturer Approval(PMA) granted by the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), despite the very high entry barriers due to the nature of the aviation industry, and succeeded in exporting for the first time in 2019. With this, we are expanding our business areas to the carbon brake discs of commercial aircraft in addition to those of Korean domestic military aircraft.
