Here are some more photos of the South Korean KDX-II class destroyer DDG-979 Gang Gam Chan.

Mk 32 torpedo tubes. I did not noticed any reloads nearby.

Mk 141 launchers for RGM-84 Harpoon Block 1C missiles

Mk 45 127 mm/62 Mod 4 gun

Mk 41 Mod 2 VLS. The 32 cell VLS is loaded with a mix of SM-2MR (Block IIIA) SAM and ASROC VLS missiles

The KDX-2 class ships are the first ones in South Korean Navy with female accommodation.
