Would be great if they could offer the Hatsuyuki and Asagiri destroyers, which theyve been phasing out recently. |

sorry if this is a repost. just saw the connection between this article i read before with the latest news...
for those knowledgeable, supposing the AFP is offered a couple of P3 Orions that Japan is slowly retiring, do you think they should go for it if the price is low enough? or should they stick to the plan of bidding out new MPAs? Edited by ganymede09, Feb 2 2015, 10:49 AM.

You're right. Getting training from them e.g. the SSV + heli ops is great, which is very useful for HADR ops. Search and Rescue training is also vital. "Two key features of the Strategic Partnership agreement are: Japan's Defense Ministry and Japan Self Defense Forces (JSDF) will carry out a "capacity building project" for the Philippine military, primarily on Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Response. Expected to benefit from this is the Philippine Air Force, as Japan will carry out "capacity building assistance in the area of air transportation."" |

PHL planning to acquire ISR, HADR, lift equipment from Japan MANILA, Feb. 3 (PNA) -- The Philippines is also planning to acquire equipment from Japan that will beef up its ISR, HADR and lift capability. ISR refers to intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance while HADR stands for humanitarian assistance and disaster relief. Defense spokesperson Dr. Peter Paul Galvez in a message to the PNA said this is in the wake that the Philippines and Japan is planning to boost their bilateral defense ties. He added that this was contained in the memorandum signed by both countries last January. Last Jan. 31, the Department of National Defense and Japan's Ministry of Defense issued a statement that Secretary Voltaire Gazmin and Minister Nakatani "concurred" on, among others, "to explore a possibility of cooperation in the area of defense equipment and technology." The two countries "will start working-level discussions" on the matter. Navy spokesman Col. Edgard Arevalo said Monday that the force submitted to DND Assistant Secretary for Plans and Programs Danilo Augusto Francia on December 26 a list of assets it plans to acquire from Japan.(PNA) FPV/PFN/PJN http://www.pna.gov.ph/index.php?idn=1&sid=&nid=1&rid=731762 |

This is where this news aggregator blog got this story. Credits go to PNA (where this blog gets its most of its AFP/DND news, and they have to gall to put their names instead of PNA and its writers )PHL defense wish list now in Japan MANILA, Feb. 2 (PNA) -- With the Philippines and Japan agreeing to stronger bilateral defense ties, the country has submitted a list of defense equipment that it plans to acquire from the Japanese. This was confirmed by Defense Secretary Voltaire Gazmin Monday during his return to the Philippines after his trip to Japan where he met with his counterpart Defense Minister Gen Nakatani. "Lahat ng magagamit to address our maritime security," Gazmin said in a text message, when asked what items were on the list. Last Jan. 31, the Department of National Defense (DND) and Japan's Ministry of Defense issued a statement concurring on, among others, "to explore a possibility of cooperation in the area of defense equipment and technology." The two countries "will start working-level discussions" on the matter. (PNA) LGI/PFN/SSC http://www.pna.gov.ph/index.php?idn=1&sid=&nid=1&rid=731574 Edited by Herbie, Feb 3 2015, 03:22 PM.

navy assets? Bold move for PN. Using wiki as source, it seems most of the air inventory is not up for replacement yet. Well theres the orions, shinmaywa 1. Surface vessels are a stretch too. Shirane?? (Boilers??) a few minesweepers are there. Yura class LST? (decom 2103). Hard to figure out |

there's the Yubari class, a bit younger than the Shirane and with codog but already decom'd way back in 2010. there's also the Hatsuyukis but i'm under the impression the PN is allergic to all-gas propulsion |
