Armed Forces of the Philippines chief Gen. Romeo Brawner Jr. on Monday expressed confidence that the acquisition of an additional 12 FA-50 fighter jets will proceed as planned.
These additional 12 FA-50s will augment the existing fleet of 11 FA-50PHs acquired from Korea Aerospace Industries between 2015 and 2017, at a cost of P18.9 billion. “But as for the MRFs, we’re still in the process of determining which one we can acquire based on our fiscal space and what we can afford,” he said.
