Philippine Navy acquires Hamilton class patrol craft

[uls]

magaling din naman mag kopya ang pinoy diba?

kaya lang walang puhunan kaya tambay lang... nag ku-kwentuhan nalang tungkol sa galing ng pinoy haha

ang China may puhunan gumawa ng kopya ng kahit ano

pera pera lang yan

pwede naman magkaroon ng aircraft carrier complete with aircraft and battle group escorts and nuclear sub ang Pinas

basta may pera why not?

[Boy Bastos]

Yup. Always the root cause. Money. Pambili. Pambayad.

Kaya tyaga na lang ang AFP sa luma at bargain. Pwede na yung mga cutters. Patrol duty lang naman ang kaya nun. Dagdagan na lang. Kumuha na lang ng mga missile-equipped frigate or destroyers kung kaya na ng budget.

Well at least AFP modernization is moving. Mukhang naibulsa na ni FVR, Erap at GMA ang budget sa 15years AFP modernization funds.

How far are they from our shores? What missiles can reach that far? Can shore-based radar see them over the horizon?

pwede, anti-ship and anti-aircraft missile batteries onshore. but you'll need awacs aircraft or down looking radar sited on top of the tallest mountains to be able to see seaborne targets far away. an elevation of 500 feet allows one to be able to "see" a horizon of 100 miles. so one on top of mountains near baguio (at 5000 feet elevation) will be able to see to 1000 miles. have 10 of those stations, overlapping coverage, then maybe 20-30 missile sites and you don't need ships. even for anti-submarine warfare you can always secretly anchor passive sonar nets so you can then launch air drop torpedoes, or even asroc (kaya lang short range ang asroc). problema lang e bibigyan kaya tayo ng US ng long range radar, yun ang tanong!
