di gud ta ka afford anang mga mahalun na kaayo na mga aircrafts, 3rd world country ra man ta. pero we should also applaud our soldiers and armies for helping to defend our country, maski gamay ra kaayo intawn ang makuha nila. mabuhay philippines!! he heh he

lolz.. mahal pa ang ZTE and fertilizer scam than getting an aircraft.....

3rd world countries (even worst than PILIPINS) could afford modern warplanes.

Here some of their notable aircraft.

Vietnam:
Sukhoi Su-30MK2V - 6
Sukhoi Su-27 Flanker - 11
Mil Mi-24 Hind - 26

Bangladesh:
Mig 29s - 14
MiG-29S UB - 2

Sri Lanka:
IAI Kfir - 11
Mig 27 - 7
Mil 24 Hind - 13

Ethiopia:
Mil 24 hind - 15
Mil 35 hind - 3
Su 25 frogfoot - 4
Su 27 flanker - 15


Burma:
Mig 29 - 12

Indonesia:
F16 - 10
Su 27 - 5

Dude that's roughly 17 billion pesos, better if they will spend that money upgrading metal factory into war factory and take advatage of our qualified engineers here.. With our current military might, I think we can pulverize all those Insurgents given the political will and the iron fist of our leaders.. IMO

Agree ko nimo brod na magtukod ra ug atong R&D but not on aircrafts or naval ships kay di nato kaya sa budget.

Maau nga atong basihan ang Israel. They have not been making their indigenous aircrafts or naval ships. Although they made partnership with the host country to modify the system according to their liking such as F-16, Raptor, F-35 and others.

However, pwede ta mag-develop sa atong hardware like howitzer, shoulder and side arms, or tanks. Like Israel they develop their own standards like the renown Galil, Uzi, Desert Eagle and the world's best The Merkava.

Sa mga eroplano ug choppers...palit lang ta kay di madali ang R&D ana.

The PHILIPPINES need not follow other countries who are in at the TOP of the FOOD CHAIN . They existed like that because of the NEED and the CAPACITY . Like I said earlier , the PHILIPPINES are composed of thousands of ISLANDS . We dont need super power technology to counter strike the enemy . All we need are identifying where we are weak in countering the rebels , terrorist and the enemies . We dont need AIRFORCE POWER or NAVAL MIGHT , what we need are SMALL BOATS that can patrol the coast in the southern part . In the inlands and highlands , upgrade the FACILITIES of the DETACHMENTS .

I haven't read or heard this one from the news. This one came from wikipedia...can anyone confirm the article below?

"On May 12, 2008 the Philippine Air Force signed a contract with Alenia Aermacchi to order 18 brand new units of SF-260 military trainers to be assembled at Clark Air Base at a contract price of 14.6 million US Dollars.[9]

According to Air Force Public Information officer Major Gerardo M. Zamudio Jr., that aside from the new SF-260 trainer planes and night capable attack helicopters, the PAF is set to purchase under its capability upgrade program, 8 primary trainer aircraft, 10 additional Huey UH-1H utility helicopters, 8 brand new combat utility helicopters, 8 new attack helicopters, 2 light lift aircraft, and 12 trainer helicopters.

The Air Force is also out to upgrade 20 MD520MG attack helicopters.

These acquisitions and upgrades, including aerial surveillance cameras, communication equipment, 1.2-ton trucks, and additional military hardware, are part of PAF’s Horizon 1, the internal security - centered stage of modernization focused on making insurgent groups irrelevant by the year 2010.

Horizon 2, the transition stage to territorial defense, is set to take effect by 2012.[10]

Air Force Chief Lt. Gen. Pedrito Cadungog said the Air Force is presently in the process of making a study of what type of fighter jets they are going to acquire. He said the acquisition can only start after 2010 which is the projected defeat of internal security threats."
