The Philippine Navy (PN) is making
the next move in beefing up its military hardware which will be primarily used
to the security of the country’s coastal waters and maritime territories.
"This acquisition aims to
strengthen the country's naval capability in terms of enhancing littoral
defense and maritime interdiction operations as it will complement the
previously acquired 12 MPAC of the PN," Navy spokesperson Commander Benjo
Negranza said.
Three (#of the MPACs are armed
with the Rafael Advanced Defense Ltd. Spike-ER (extended range)
surface-to-surface missile system while three more are scheduled to be
installed with the same weapon system.

Negranza said the acquisition of
eight units of FAIC-M is among the 2019 projects approved by President Rodrigo
Roa Duterte under the Horizon 2 List of the Revised Armed Forces of the
Philippines Modernization Program.
"The first two units of the
FAIC-M (are) estimated to arrive in-country around the last quarter of
2022," he said.
The FAIC-M project was awarded to
Israel Shipyards Ltd. and Rafael Advanced Defense Systems of Israel under a
government-to-government procurement scheme and is divided into two lots.
"Lot 1 covers the delivery of
nine platforms, four of which will be missile-capable, and the upgrading of the
Naval Shipyard (NSY) for the establishment of a local production line as part
of the Transfer of Technology (ToT). On the other hand, Lot 2 includes the
integration of weapons and combat systems," Negranza said.
When the deliveries are completed
it is expected that these vessels can interdict surface threats and launch
non-line-of-sight missiles safely using the surrounding littoral areas as
maneuver space and cover.
