The KAI KTX-1 turboprop trainer first flew in 1991. It has several differences compared to the later KT-1 production aircraft: smaller, lighter, different tail surfaces and a different engine. This is the 2nd prototype which, since 2000, is preserved in the Seoul war museum, just marked as "KTX-1".

This Alouette III in fact is 770301. It had been preserved here as such at least until 2018 (Air History has pics of the helicopter with its original serial). No idea why they changed the identity. The c/n plate shows that it really is 770301. This photo was made after sunset when the museum's lights illuminate the aircraft.

This former USAF Provider had originally been built as a C-123B but was later converted to C-123J. It was placed in storage at MASDC in 1976 and delivered to the RoKAF the following year. Since 1995 it is on display in the Seoul war museum. Seen here after sunset and after a fresh paint job.

The history of this Tracker remains a mystery. It is supposed to be former USN 136595 which was delivered to the JMSDF as 4108 in 1957 and was last noted there in 1976. In 1978, it appeared in the US civil register as N207AK (to be used as fire bomber by the State of Alaska), but apparently it was never taken up as such. In 1995, it emerged in the Seoul war memorial, initially with serial 6707, which is former USN Tracker 136707 (c/n 616). Some reports indicate that the latter aircraft indeed was delivered to the RoKAF in 1972 and later went to the navy. So 6595 might be fake.

This aircraft is a bit of a mystery. 82536 is a T-6F with US s/n 44-82536 that indeed was delivered to South Korea. However, (parts of) the airframe are from a Canadian built Noorduyn Harvard as can be seen from the frame separating the front and the rear cockpit.

The real 49-1236 shot down a MiG-15 over Korea on 17 December 1950 (when operated by 334th FIS), and later was shot down itself by a MiG-15 near Sinanju, North Korea on 24 October 1951. Another fake 49-1236, in exactly the same markings and colours, is preserved in the USAF Museum at Wright-Patterson AFB, Oh. The real identity of the latter aircraft is known (49-1067). The identity of the aircraft in the Seoul War Memorial Museum is not known (afaik).

This beautiful C-46D is the former USAAF 44-78541, which was delivered to the South Korean Air Force on 25 September 1968. It was on display at the War Memorial Museum as '8541'. Presumably, this still is the same plane here, but it now carries a somewhat different serial, although the last three are still the same.

In the past, this aircraft was on display at the Seoul War Museum in the more recent grey colourscheme, with its serial presented as 89-046 (there is a photo at Air History). However, it was later restored in its original colourscheme from the early 1970s. Much more beautiful! This picture was taken shortly after sunset.
