The AAMs for the MAH were shipped by European defense contractor M and transported from Châteauroux Airport in France to Incheon International Airport aboard a charter flight arranged by LX Pantos. They were then delivered by road to a Republic of Korea Marine Corps unit in Pohang.
LX Pantos deployed a dedicated charter aircraft, with the missiles carried as the sole cargo to ensure safety and security. The shipment was classified as Class 1 explosives, Division 1.2, Compatibility Group E, and the missiles were subject to the highest levels of security control.
Air transportation of dangerous goods such as defense materials is a highly specialized operation that must comply with both the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulations and relevant national aviation safety requirements.
During the operation, LX Pantos secured overflight clearances from 14 countries across Europe, the Middle East and Asia and coordinated multimodal transport through its global network, including European subsidiaries.
LX Pantos has been expanding its defense logistics business since receiving an "Excellent" rating in a 2024 security assessment by Korea's Defense Counterintelligence Command.
It has also attained Assessment Level 3 (AL3), the highest level under Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange (TISAX), demonstrating its ability to meet stringent global information security requirements.
An LX Pantos official said the project demonstrated the company's advanced safety, security and logistics expertise, adding that LX Pantos will continue to support global defense customers and strengthen its role in the defense logistics market.
Established in 1977, LX Pantos is a leading global logistics provider headquartered in Korea. It delivers comprehensive logistics solutions across sea, air, rail, and contract logistics through a worldwide network spanning more than 40 countries.

LX Pantos Successfully Completes Complex Defense Logistics Project for Advanced Weapons
SINGAPORE, Sept. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- HIMSS26 APAC a flagship digital health event for the Asia-Pacific region at Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre in Singapore. During the event, Huawei hosted the "AI for Health, Health for All" forum, bringing together more than 100 healthcare leaders, experts, and partners from across APAC. At the forum, Huawei and its ecosystem partners jointly launched four AI+ Healthcare Solution Scenarios, combining digital and intelligent infrastructure with healthcare expertise to accelerate AI adoption in high-value clinical and hospital workflows.
In the smart ward scenario, Huawei collaborated with Cadi Scientific and Lachesis to launch the AI+ Smart Ward Solution. Combining continuous vital-sign monitoring, intelligent sensing, RTLS and smart medical carts, the solution transforms care from periodic monitoring to continuous observation and from reactive response to proactive risk prevention. It streamlines point-of-care workflows, reduces repetitive nursing tasks and enables earlier risk detection, helping hospitals enhance patient safety and improve ward operational efficiency.
In the pathology scenario, Huawei collaborated with TEKSQRAY to launch the AI+ Pathology Scenario Solution, combining TEKSQRAY's digital pathology and AI capabilities with Huawei OceanStor. Evolves from manual microscope-based slide examination to AI-powered analysis of digitized pathology images, enabling faster, more consistent, and data-driven disease diagnosis, and from single case research to population level insights. By reducing repetitive diagnostic workloads and bridging gaps in pathology expertise, it improves diagnostic efficiency and helps extend more consistent, high-quality pathology services to patients.
In the clinical decision support scenario (CDSS), Huawei collaborated with GuidelineX to launch the AI+ CDSS Scenario Solution, supported by Huawei OceanStor and Ascend. The scenario augments clinical decision-making with AI assisted diagnosis, evidence-based treatment support, and early risk alerts, helping clinicians make more precise and consistent decisions while improving the patient experience.
In the full-cycle clinical intelligence scenario, Huawei collaborated with Runda Medical Technology to launch the AI+ Clinical Intelligence Scenario Solution, leveraging Huawei OceanStor and Ascend to enable coordinated AI across care workflows. It brings AI coordination to patient care, enables multi-step workflow orchestration, and helps shift patient journey management from reactive to proactive, streamlining care delivery while allowing clinicians to focus more on patient care.
During HIMSS26 APAC, Huawei also showcased scenario-based solutions across Preventive Healthcare, telemedicine and Hospital Operation Center (HOC) demonstrating how digital and intelligent technologies can extend across the healthcare journey.
Together Huawei will continue to work with customers and partners across APAC to accelerate scenario-based AI innovation and bring intelligence into more healthcare workflows.
