AFP Modernization in Full Swing

[crisxahia]

---

so philippines will have a total of 13 AW109 helicopter? 8 for PAF and 5 for PN?

no sir, when the govt approved the acquisition for the PN's Naval Helicopter. the approved budget was for 3 Helicopters "with an option for 2 more".. as of the moment there has been no word yet if the PN will take advantage of that option to get 2 more.

the contract signed was for 3 Helicopters only atm, hope that answers your Q sir.

Here's a much clearer picture of the helicopter.. very nice indeed.



added another picture.. and there goes all three helicopters. Finally, our first operational unit with FLIR.

i read some place else that some US marine while doing their morning run... when they pass the navy HQ they sing... Navy Navy dont be blue... forgot the whole cadence but it was funny.. it was based from rainbow cadence, blue are for the airforce, green is for the army, gray is not the navy..
