yes..war in Mindanao year 2000.eraps time.they used f5 fighter jets to bomb milf camp.

unya sa pag bomba nila sa kampo sa MILF naa ba dakong maayo na epekto sa mindanao? ang AFP lang man ang na alkanse di ba kay wala na sila kwarta pang maintenance..

ma alkanse o wala ang afp, ila ng trabaho to protect our nation against any enemy foreign or domestic. that why we should give them the best equipment..

so dili na maintenance karon imo g point? the fact nga nagamit or gigigamit effective jud na..unsa man jud d i imo gusto?

[PIA News] Newest Navy ship arrives in Palawan, beefs up defense in West Philippine Sea

thats media talking... newest aquired ship but its still 1960's ship. our jacinto class frigates are 1980's designed... and upgrades are updated. anyway OT na kaau tah.

i believe chris_bern here is againts further military aquisitions since wala nagyud tah kaya.. dira nlng gyud dapat tah. give our AFP a chance to improve for goodness sake!

you speak of our airforce is closed to dumb. but when topic goes to aquiring planes for them you disagree.. ?

ang imo man gud gusto mahitabo gyera gyud ba.. kabalo ka bisan magpadala pa nag f-16 ato airforce para ma intimidate ang mga illegal fishermen dili gihapon na sila ma intimidate kay nahibalo na sila na ila country kaya pud e intimidate ang pinas.. mahagbong lang man gud na sa VENGEANCE bay.. walay katapusang away.. better leave it to agencies like UN kay murespeto man ang tibook kalibotan ana sa ilang desisyon.. all u have to do is wait lang jud bisan unsa pa na kadugay.

even your in patrol.. its still considered "combat patrol" maski wah ka nitira sir... i did not say gyera gyud dapat mahitabo ako gusto.. i mean, dapat tah mag upgrade nah.. its badly needed. same goes to istoryans here who wants to lobby BRT system or the trains here.!

hitting milf bunkers, rebel HQ's have serious effects for the enemies sir.

you suggest no planes then? let the marines or army do the hardwork? probably alot would be KIA over running a single enemy bunker. is purchased bomb or plane maintenance more precious to you than our soldiers??

probably let the AFP crumble. like the NPA allied partylist who keeps insisting budget cuts on the military..most likely so that there armed brothers in arms (NPA) can easily burned houses or collect revolutionary taxes... @CB, ur night a NPA ayt?

Start using your own oil. Start researching and producing your own weapons. Problem solved.

lisud ni buhaton imo suggestion bay, ang RND sa weapons cost so much.. and as for oil gamay ra kau atong production dli kapaigo..

for example sa US bay ha to make 1 F-16C .. it would cost around $10 million
then another thing to consider is pila ang cost kay mag build patag facility or factory to make jets , mag hire ug aviation experts na dli tga a2a, rare raw materials.. the Philippines is not yet ready to make Jets..

[chris_bern]

kamo gud bahala kung gusto jud ninyo nga naa ta ana.. mas preferred pa man gud nako na mga transport planes na lang ang ila e upgrade kaysa f-16... in our times man gud since nauso na ang mga disasters sa pinas mas daghan unta na ma purchase nga mga transport planes and choppers kaysa F-16 na gamay lang magamit.. kulang man gud nang 5 C130's and few numbers of huey choppers.. although ok sad gud nang f-16 na unta naa ta pero dapat masabtan pud ninyo kung naa ba jud ta ana maintenance..

lahe man gud tag vision para sa AFP dude.. ako vision is that our AFP should upgrade its planes not in terms to make it strong just to intimidate enemy.. they should upgrade its planes to help in times of natural calamities and disasters and not to make it pampahambog sa ubang nasud as what u want to show.. dili diay pwede para nimo na sa ato economy run ang ila lang kuhaon na airplanes kay kanang makadeliver ug relief aids in a bulk just like transport planes?

Don't have the money and don't have the resources to export to finance it and don't have industry to produce ?

Too bad.

Politicians will reverse thinking if anyone decides to invade this place. Instead of building mansions they'll be building weapons and purchasing equipment/technology. The Military can manage and figure out what you need.

The issue is financing it and supplying the oil. you can do both if your government change it's role.
