Despite budget constraints, the Philippine government has allocated a budget of 75 billion pesos (almost $1.8 billion) for national defense over the next five years.

Defense Secretary Voltaire Gazmin said at the same forum that with this money, the air force, for example, should be able to acquire "potent and dependable assets and platforms."

Air force chief Lauro Catalino dela Cruz said there is already a recommendation to acquire 12 new fighter aircraft, three medium-lift aircraft, two light-lift aircraft, three radar systems for use at the western part of the country facing the South China Sea, eight combat utility helicopters and 10 attack helicopters.

We need to pair this with a radar and early warning system to be effective. I'm just thinking that maybe these can be stationed in Ilocos for northern region. Zambales for the Northwest and Palawan for West.
