Articles I have Created

[edit]


I am currently having a hard time researching an up-to-date data of these ships, and I'm currently preparing a lot more PN ship articles. Problem is, insufficient data, sources are very rare and improperly named, lack of pictures, and a lot more. Please bear with me since I want to have an article which is accurate and up-to-date as possible. It was only when I'm in the middle of my researching that I realized the number of ships the Philippine Navy had....hundreds of ships of different class, sizes, and ages!

New corvette based on HDC-3100 design

Brand new frigates under construction by South Korea's HD Hyundai Heavy Industries based on the shipbuilder's HDF-3200 large corvette/frigate design, acquired under the Horizon 2 phase of the Revised AFP Modernization Program. The first ship is scheduled for delivery by 2025, and was will be commissioned with the Philippine Navy thereafter. The 2 ships of the class will become the most modern surface combatants of the Philippine Navy, surpassing the Jose Rizal-class frigates in terms of size, design, capability and technology.

BRP Gregorio del Pilar

Formerly US Coast Guard cutters of the Hamilton-class, granted to the Philippine Navy as part of US Military Assistance Program. The first ship BRP Gregorio del Pilar was handed over by the US Coast Guard to the Philippine Navy on 13 May 2011, and commissioned on 14 December 2011. Currently the 3 ships of the class are the most capable surface combatants of the Philippine Navy, and are being used to train the organization on modern warship operations in preparation for future new assets being acquired under the Revised AFP Modernizastion Program. The class will undergo sensor upgrades, with the US government providing SAAB AN/SPS-77 Sea Giraffe AMB 3D air/surface search radars,[1] FLIR Systems SEAFLIR 230 electro-optical/infra-red (EO/IR) system, and BAE Systems Mark 38 Mod.2 or 3 25mm gun systems under FMS & FMF programs. A separate upgrade program funded by the Philippine Navy will see the introduction of a new Combat Management System, Electronic Support Measures (R-ESM), and Hull Mounted Sonar (HMS).[2]

They were first commissioned between 1983 and 1984, simply designed and are tropicalized for operations in the Asia.[3][4] The ships underwent several phases of upgrades undertaken by the Philippine Navy, with the first one completed in 2005 replacing the old radar and navigation systems. The second upgrade involved the improvements on its marine engineering systems, and a third upgrade included the improvement of combat systems.[5][6]

[edit]
Main article: Tarlac-class landing platform dock
BRP Davao del Sur

New Indonesian-made landing platform docks, current the Philippine Navy's foremost amphibious warfare platform and its first major brand new ship acquisition since the 1990s. It was acquired under the "Strategic Sealift Vessel" project and was based on the Indonesian Makassar-class landing platform dock. The ships can carry up a Philippine Marine Battalion Landing Team (MBLT) with up to 500 fully-armed marines and their vehicles and equipment, and carries two small landing craft utilities (LCU) with it. It has a helicopter deck capable of accommodating 2 12-ton helicopters, as well as a hangar for 1 helicopter.[7] The ships are expected to be installed with additional weapons and improved sensor systems.[8] More are being planned for acquisition, either the same or slightly different design, under the Philippine Navy's RAFPMP Horizon 2 modernization program.[9]

[edit]

BRP Davao del Sur

The Bacolod City-class is the Philippine Navy's main amphibious operation platform prior to the delivery of the Tarlac-class LPD. The two ships were acquired through US Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program. A contract for two ships was announced by Trinity Marine on 3 April 1992, with an option for a third ship which was not taken up. The design was based on a modified version of the US Army's General Frank S. Besson-class LSV, but without accommodation for 150 troops using the space originally for the stern ramp, and the addition of a small helicopter deck. The ship is used in a similar fashion as a Landing Ship-Tank, able to land troops and equipment directly to the beach.[3][10]

BRP Laguna

Former US Navy landing ships-tank that served during World War II, and transferred to numerous countries including the Philippines. The Philippine Navy received its first ships of the class on 30 December 1946, and has received almost 30 units between 1946 to 1976. Some of those that were received came through South Vietnam as several ships were absorbed by the Philippine Navy upon their escape at the end of the Vietnam War.[3] One of the ships, BRP Sierra Madre is technically retired from service, but was grounded at Ayungin Shoal and is treated as in active service despite modified as a semi-permanent structure and outpost to a few Philippine Marines stationed in the contested territory.[11] Some of the ships were also used as helicopter platforms, stationing utility helicopters from the Philippine Air Force in several occasions, including during tensions with China in the Mischief Reef in 1995.[12]

Tagbanua class landing craft utility

[edit]
The BRP Tagbanua (LC-296)

A sole ship of its class designed and built indigenously after the Philippine Navy called for the construction of a new landing craft utility (LCU). The contract to build 1 ship was awarded to Propmech Corporation on March 2010, with the Philippine Iron Construction and Marine Works (PICMW) building the ship based on a design developed with Propmech Corporation, which also supplied the propulsion and power systems of the ship. The design was not as successful as expected, and additional units were not ordered as the Philippine Navy received used landing crafts from Australia, and looked at acquiring larger, more capable strategic sealift assets.

Former Balikpapan-class landing craft heavy of the Royal Australian Navy, and were built in the 1970s. Two ships were donated by the Australian Government in 2015 as it was noted that marine transport was lacking in the Philippine Navy during HADR operations following Typhoon Yolanda. All three remaining units with the RAN were purchased by the Philippine Government in 2015 and delivered by 2016.[13] They are currently used for transport military and civilian equipment and supplies around the country.

BRP General Mariano Alvarez (PS38)

The Alvarez class are Philippine Navy versions of the Cyclone-class US Navy inshore patrol ships previously used by the United States Naval Special Warfare Command for low intensity conflict environment. The Philippine Navy received the lead class, formerly the USS Cyclone (PC-1), and was transferred at a time when the US Special Operations Command rejected the class for being too big for commando missions, while the Navy Fleet found them too small for patrol and combat missions. Following the US Occupation of Iraq, the US Navy intended to keep the remaining ships of the class until the last ship of the class were decommissioned in 2023, and the Philippine Navy was able to receive two more units, the former USS Monsoon (PC-4) and former USS Chinook (PC-9) which were transferred on 28 March 2023.[17][18]

Shaldag V fast attack interdiction craft

Ordered by the Philippine Navy from Israel Shipyards to eventually replace the Tomas Batilo-class fast attack crafts. Twelve were originally planned but only eight were initially funded as part of the Navy's procurement plan from 2018 to 2022. Four of the boats are to be built in Israel and will feature missile armament using the Rafael Spike NLOS short-range surface to surface missile, while the other four will be built in the PN's Cavite Naval Yard under a technology transfer agreement and will only be fitted for but not with the missile system. An additional 1 unit was negotiated by the Philippine Navy, although it will not have missile systems. All are fitted with remote gun systems from Rafael. It remains to be seen if the PN will pursue the acquisition of more units.
