The modernization of
the Philippine Navy has reached new heights.
The Armed Forces of
the Philippines (AFP) has just announced that the Philippine Navy (PN) now has
the capability to defend against aerial threats with the delivery of the
Mistral 3 surface-to-air missiles (SAMs) of its two new frigates last October 8.
The Mistral 3 is the
first ever SAM procured by the AFP that would bolster the military's capability
to defend the country's territory, AFP spokesperson, Army Col. Ramon Zagala,
said

"The Mistral 3
SAMs will be fitted on BRP Jose Rizal (FF-150) and BRP Antonio Luna (FF-151)
and will give the Philippine Navy (PN) a much needed defensive capability
against hostile air targets," Zagala said.
"With Republic Act 10349 or the Revised AFP Modernization Program
signed in 2012, the AFP was able to acquire new assets that are vital in the
performance of our mandate as protector of the people and the state,"
Zagala added.
The procurement of missile systems, he said, is cost-effective and a
reliable addition to a layered defense system, capable of denying enemy
intrusion and deterring future attacks by external threats.
The Mistral 3 was delivered at the Subic Bay International Airport in
Bataan last October 8.
According to the AFP. procurement and delivery of the Mistral 3 SAMs is
part of the PN Frigate Acquisition Project Lot 2B which was awarded to the MBDA
Missile Systems based in France.
"Surface-to-air missiles are among the primary weapons of FF-150
and FF-151 that bolsters the PN’s anti-air warfare capability. The arrival of
these missiles will greatly capacitate our JRC (Jose Rizal-Class) frigates in
the conduct of their maritime operations," said Navy spokesperson,
Commander Benjo Negranza.
Meantime, the PN Frigate Acquisition Lot 2A, or for the JRC's
surface-to-surface missiles, is scheduled for deliveries in March 2022.
South Korean defense manufacturer LIG Nex 1 would deliver C-Star
missiles which is considered the main surface-to-surface weapon of the JRCs.
The C-Star is described as a "sea-skimming surface-to-surface
anti-ship cruise missile".
