I'd have to agree with warlord: our naval assets without missiles are pretty much useless against external threats.

MSantor is not a man of sound reason. Savages have always preferred the club for they know that they are powerless against the pen. But who is the greater fool - the savage or the one that gives him power? May Truth rebuke you.

I second the motion :salute:

I agree because useless na rin talaga yung mga WW2 vintage na vessels ng Philippine navy, those vessel are already past their prime. they already serve their duty and i think it's time to them to retire to give way for the the newly arrived flotilla, sayang lang talaga ang gastos ng PN in maintaining the old boats.

yup, external threat?if in case a chinese modern frigate comes to the shores of palawan against the entire PN fleet, im not talking of a days war here, im even counting hours before our hulls will all be sunk to be made as coral reefs.

Clearly, our PN is not for external threts, patrol and law inforcement, heck were like the coast guard in capability. Unless we see a single missile system in any of our boats, forget about external threat capability, there aint any threat. well just listen for the missiles to find their target, then thats it. thats the PN ladies and gentlemen!thats just how far we go.

being an archipelagic nation will be more of a detterent to any invading nation, than having a navy.at least, were not that hopeless in any eventuality
