Since there is no serious progress yet from the airforce... I feel like they would go for some defensive missile system like naval platform/based surface to surface (ship-to-ship), then a SAM, before they get some air-to-air missiles. That based on what they have been prioritizing as of now which seem to be the navy. My 2 centavos.

Roilo Golez suggested the ship should be equipped with missiles to make it more lethal. Golez, a former national security adviser and a graduate of the US Naval Academy, was among the administration officials who toured the ship when it docked at the South Harbor in Manila yesterday. He said installation of a missile system in the newly acquired vessel is not expensive and worth the investment, considering �the multitrillion-peso resources, minerals, fish, oil� within the Philippines� exclusive economic zone. �And of course, there�s no price to our country�s sovereignty,� Golez said. �The next step is to give the ship missile capability. This is technically feasible for a song. Its 76mm gun, though rapid firing, is no match to the capability of the naval powers in the region, which can fire a missile salvo from way beyond the horizon,� he said. Golez said there are many missile systems that the AFP can acquire from France, Germany, Italy or the US. He said the missile range should be anywhere from 60 nautical miles to 150 nautical miles to cover the 200-mile EEZ. �This is very doable and would be quite a force multiplier,� Golez said. http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?publi...rticleId=719947
