The S&T Daewoo XK9 (also designated DS9A) was a South Korean 9x19mm submachine gun developed in the early 2000s as a domestic alternative to the Heckler & Koch MP5 then in service with ROK special operations forces. Built on a shortened K2 rifle action with a polymer skeletonized side-folding stock, the XK9 fires from a closed bolt at ~980 rpm with a four-position selector (safe, semi, two-round burst, full-auto). Despite trials, the XK9 was not adopted; the project was effectively cancelled.
