In the face of escalating maritime tension with Beijing in the South China Sea, the Philippine Navy has secured the lion’s share of the recently approved $35 billion Armed Forces of the Philippines modernization budget, signaling a notable recalibration in defense allocations.
The budget is slated to finance a range of acquisitions outlined in an extensive wish list submitted by the AFP to the President. Commodore Roy Vincent Trinidad, the Philippine Navy spokesperson for the West Philippine Sea, revealed on May 1 that the budget would be disbursed over 10 years.
The spokesperson refrained from detailing the specific items on the wish list, but it is presumed to include the procurement of Submarines, radar equipment, unmanned combat aerial vehicles, naval frigates, maritime patrol aircraft, amphibious and auxiliary vessels, and search and rescue helicopters.
In January, the Philippine President approved the $35 billion for a revised version of Horizon 3 - almost equivalent to the total cost projected for, by the original program. In contrast, the previous administration only approved $5.6 billion for Horizon 2. Dubbed Re-Horizon 3, this revised phase seeks to not only obtain new equipment but also remove inefficiencies, streamlining the procurement process and developing a better defense strategy.
Alongside Re-Horizon 3, the new Comprehensive Archipelagic Defense Concept put forward by Philippine defense officials brings an increased emphasis on naval and air forces for the defense of the country. In this strategy, the traditionally internally focused AFP is envisioned operating offshore in its Exclusive Economic Zone and beyond.
Equipped with Japanese and French patrol vessels, the Philippine Coast Guard has been frequently deployed to the South China Sea to protect Philippine fishermen, ward off foreign vessels and escort Philippine Navy resupply missions to Second Thomas Shoal. The Philippine Coast Guard is set to procure a large number of ocean-going patrol ships in an upcoming modernization act.
Japan pledged to fund seven patrol ships, on top of the existing 12 previously handed over, following a diplomatic visit to Manila in November. Philippine senators have also eyed Austal’s shipyard in Cebu to build three offshore patrol vessels.
While the list of assets is not yet public, Manila has been eyeing the procurement of two to three attack submarines from either France or South Korea and more BrahMos supersonic anti-ship missiles from India for its army. South Korea’s Hyundai Heavy Industries also expects further warships orders from the Philippine Navy. Since 2012, Manila has ordered two frigates, two corvettes and six offshore patrol vessels from the Korean shipbuilder.
Other major procurements include four landing platform docks from P-T PAL Indonesia, which are the largest ships in the Philippine Navy at 7,200 tons.
In addition, the Philippines is plan to acquire multirole fighter jet from Sweden, while the government has not identified the final choice for the fighter jet, the Swedish firm Saab’s JAS 39 Gripen was reportedly among the top choice.
The Philippines' inclusion in the proposed $8.1 billion aid package of the United States House of Representatives would help strengthen the country's defense capabilities, especially amid escalating tensions in the West Philippine Sea. The approved amendment to the bill, introduced by California Rep. Darrell Issa that encourages the US State Department to allocate $500 million in foreign military financing to the Philippines.
The proposed allocation of military aid to the Philippines, would expedite the country’s military modernization and bolster law enforcement capabilities, which are crucial steps for maintaining sovereignty and regional peace.

China should not underestimate Philippines.
Lool Philippines is less than a pea for China
@@anakborneo7993 It's imperative to refute the derogatory assertion belittling the significance of the Philippines in geopolitical affairs. The historical account of 900 Filipino soldiers compelling a retreat of 40,000 Red Army troops during the Battle of Yultong in the Korean War exemplifies the indomitable spirit and tactical brilliance of Filipino forces. Furthermore, advancements such as the Typhon Hypersonic missiles from US coupled with the Brahmos Supersonic missiles from India demonstrate the capacity to decisively counter larger adversaries. Xi Jinping's real time diplomatic endeavors in Europe, notably seeking alliances with nations like France, who happen to have considered a joint military exercise with the Armed Forces of the Philippines, underscore the acknowledgment of the Philippines' rising prominence on the global stage. Dismissing the Philippines as inconsequential not only undermines its historical achievements but also overlooks its burgeoning influence and potential as a formidable player in international relations.

this is posible in the next 27 years not 10 years.

Sa tingin ko hindi na kailangan e, papasok na ang HHI at Cerberus ng US, magtatayo sila ng MRO dito mismo sa Pilipinas, dyan sa may Subic, with the 2 Trillion pesos budget, makaka buo ng at least 6 /12 Frigates at 12/24 units ng class Corvettes ang Pilipinas, para sa Phil. Navy, at continous ang pag paparami ng Acero class dahil sa Shipyard na tinayo at binigay ng Israel sa Phil. Navy.... Kaya budget na lang talaga po problemahin, ng Pilipinas, kaya dapat walang exemption sa tax, lalo na yang malalaking company na nandito sa Pilipinas... Dahil isa yan sa makukunan ng pondo, para maparami natin ang mga needed na warships ng Phil. Navy....

if the U.S. will not honor the treaty then how could they have the face to face with japan, south korea, and australia. what will be the next move before the Philippines will become the next tibet.
Tapos bibilhin Yong frigate na walang missile. Dapat mga frigates na 40/60 ang missile at may mga phalanx weapons pang counter sa missile no incoming.
mas malaki pala budget ngayon 35 billion . kumapara sa horizon 2 na 5billion dollars lang 😮
Dapat magpalakas ang Navy. Last administration tahimik lang sila.
Tuta kasi ng tsina ang last admin.

This is a modest modernizations of the AFP with a credible force to counter external threat. With these modernization plus the support of the US and Japan will enable the Philippines to defend its sovereighnty and patrol its vast exclusive economic zones.
Reclassified the JRC to corvettes and buy 6 heavy frigates for PH navy.
Uncle loves the purchase 🎉
Phil needs USD 70 Billion for next 15 years 2025- 2040 or USD 4.7 Billion ( 270 Billion pesos) per year in automatic appropriation budget for multi year payment for AFP modernization on military procurement of fighter aircrafts/assault helicopters and frigates/ destroyers , missiles
Walang wala prin yan kumpara sa budjet ng karatig natin bansa pinaka mababa tayo sa asia sa budjet
Philippine should spent money on there streets children and helping hardcore poor .
first'...
Phillippines need new bigger ships. Those floating around all too small and its just like a toy for China and they’re just laughing their head about it. We need all hightect. arms and war equipt.
Philippines need to educate their people build transport infrastructure, telecommunications, electricity and water supply.
I dont think china can do something when all of us pilipino become one .
Yan na po ang ginagawa ngaun ng China sa atin
They divide us and conquer
35 B $ every year?wow thats big boost to our afp.,🙂
Nice color
Sana di daanan ng corapsyon..
We should thank China because of what there doing the AFP modernization are in good pase
Wow ,$35 Billion Saan Kaya hanapin ng Pinas itong Pera na Ito?
These are some of the other new weapons for Philippines, obviously there are more weapons that not for expose publicity.
35 pcs. na Corvette ship at 35 pcs. na Frigate ship
bumili ang Phil gov ng 150 units na Nasams missile,150 units na Akash missile,150 units na iron dome missile at 150 units na patriot missile
one thing na kulang saatin is jet fighter at we have 50 dpat
please prioritize MRF F16 Vipers instead of buying more naval ships it will sank down easily by submarines.
Build Naval base in Palanan Bay
bumili ang Phil gov ng 350 units na F-16 jet fighter,350 units na 350 na kf-21 jet fighter at 150 units na Brahmos missile
mas maganda kung gumawa nalang ng warship dito sa pinas mas mura tyaka mas malaking tulong sa navy natin dagdag trabaho din sa mga pinoy
20long...years...project
35 billion of soft loan
Tutukan na nating mag drill ng gas sa wps
Just a wish list. Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. recently approved a “wish list” of big-ticket military procurements with an estimated value of around $35 billion (2 trillion Philippine pesos), which will be spent over the next ten years.
All is fine if they have the qualified Crews and can do the maintance as well as keeping THIER ships off the reefs!
India with Philippines
Go go go go phillipines
While the Philippines is busy fighting against China, Indonesia and Malaysia are focusing on development.
The Philippines is consumed by the United States like Ukraine.
WHAT IS THE USE OF THESE MILITARY MODERNIZATION ON THE PHILIPPINES WHEN THEY ARE READILY ALLOWING ALL THESE CHINESE NATIONALS IN THE COUNTRY TO FREELY OPERATE IN DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE COUNTRY???

Is there any Asian country providing defence aid or oceanic support for Philippines?
Vietnam and Indonesia is much closer to Philippines than what it seems to appear on the surface especially online. These 3 countries have this mutual bond, like cousins that grew up together and respect each other. The rest of the ASEAN countries are like distant relatives.
I'm just asking.... " CAN Philippines buy " S - 400 " from Russia ( The Deadliest Missile Defence System Ever Produced )
S400 nalusutan yan ng brahmos missile ng india na nakapasok sa maybe iran / pakistan ata un n merong s400
No they won't buy those. As to the 'deadliest' description, perhaps you should check what the Ukrainians have to say about that
Where will Manila get the $35 billion? Whatever aid the Philippines gets, the money will find its way back to the U. S..
This should be secret 😢
35 billion for the span of 10-15 years.
That's just annual military budget to china tbh.
ang china kailangan talaga ng malaking budget dahil nasa 2million sundo nila. satin nasa 250k lang . ang budget na nilalabas ay depende sa laki ng kasundaluhan mo. sa 35billion budget nayan. kasama najan ang sweldo ng sundalo . ganun din sa china kung ang china merin 1 trillion budget sa armed forces nila kasama nadin jan ang sweldo ng sundalo nila . maintenance ng mga barko, upgrade . ALL IN na gastusin ng buong armed forces.
the Philippines should arm its law abiding citizens with proper arms and training. guns shoul only be distributed during times of war. Filipinos have guns but not high powered ones used in war. china will have second thoughts invading a nation with a well armed military and civilians in the tens of millions.
The most ph can buy with that money is to acquire Ukraine junk aircraft carrier .
Sana hindi manakaw ang budget.

Kulang Yung pera
As much as I like the F-35 and other American jets,
I think the Swedish Gripen is the better choice for PH.
Its fast sortie rate, and ability to use roads as runways is very special, IMO.
They can be more dispersed. When needed, unprepared areas with only a road
could be used to create an air presence.
That makes enemy planning more complex.
Much more difficult to suppress PH air power.
Conventional-looking aircraft seem more reliable than stealth aircraft, but the Philippine air force should keep an eye on the development of the KF-21 Boramae.
Get both pets lang Yan gamiten any mga kinurakut ni duterte at mga makachina
The Philippines doesnt really have any air power. That's the truth. Wit a defence budget of about US$4 billion per year at this stage - not enough to run an army let alone procure new eqhipment.
We already know the Philippines has a small budget for their Air Force that’s beside the point what we need to know is which equipment is better and cheaper. However, due to financial aid I believe AFP will go with the F16s or f18s

The project for ten years to be completed is good if there is no tension, but the tension is in the present. So we say timeout and we will say to the attacker,attack us after 10 years. 😂😂😂😂😂
So far, here's what Philippines have: For the base defense, precision long-range radome from Japan coupled with the Spyder air-defense missile. This remarkable system is comparable to the irondome of Israel. For the next level defense/offense, depending on the application, the Brahmos supersonic cruise missile from India is notable. It can sink ships atleast 300km away from the shore and maybe uninterceptable at the speed of mach2.8. And for the full offensive, the Typhoon hypersonic missile system of the US is fatal and highly-coveted. With a range of atleast 2500km, it can easily reach the enemy bases in their mainland uninterceptably with speed more than mach3. It could even wipe out an entire city depending on the warhead the US will use. With these, along with quality soldiers (highly-trained and experienced), I guess the Philippines can fight on a short notice. Afterall the soldiers of Philippines are known to be the Spartans of Asia due to the Battle of Yultong. The soldiers are ready, the civilians just have to be ready to fight too when worse comes to worst.
