Its more than likely the PN is getting the Gyeongju one of the earliest batck of the Pohang Class so its the ASUW version not the ASW version still a leap of technology for the PN sailors lucky some of them are already trained in GDP class frigates so it shouldn't take that long to get used to it. I'm betting that the PN will like it and they will proceed to get the next ASW version that will be retired they should replace the General Malvar corvettes so a good 2 ASUW and 3 ASW will be good enough.

[freeyourmind]

didnt they donate an LCU?

[gotenks]

didnt they donate an LCU?

Yes but this is a different thank you,the LCU is for the FA50s and this is for the AAVs of the Philippine Marines,now I wonder if the PN chose the Incheon class,will the PN get 4 Chamsuri class patrol boat aka Tomas Batillo class or what I preferred a Dolgorae class Midget submarine for training.

kelangan pa ba sya i upgrade?

[gotenks]

kelangan pa ba sya i upgrade?

Yes the type of Pohang that the PN is getting is an earlier version its ASUW its weapons are  2 x MM-38 Exocet,1 x OTO Melara 76 mm/62 compact cannon,- 2 x Emerlec 30 mm cannons.

It needs to be upgraded to the ASW version with ASW Version:
 - 2 x OTO Melara 76 mm/62 compact cannon
 - 4 x Harpoon missiles
 - 2 x Breda 40mm/70 twin cannons
 - 2 x Mark 32 triple torpedo tubes (with 6× Mark 46 torpedoes)

- 12 x Mark 9 depth charges
or it can stay that way buy 1 more ASUW and then get 4 ASW version.

Dapat ang kailangan natin ay battleships like ung USS Missouri at mga Aircraft Carrier kasi isla tayo para may pang tapat tayo sa china hindi ganyan lang

Haaysss. Eto nanaman tayo.. dapat ganito, dapat ganyan..

[bodieph]

battleship? even the US no longer has any battleships in active service since the maintenance was very high. pano nalang sa pinas. also they are outdated, other ships carry more firepower (i.e. one cruise missile can fire at targets way way farther and cause more damage than a battleship could)  and are cheaper to maintain. so the argument that a battleship is good na pantapat sa china is not really a good one.

aircraft carriers sure, we could use that but we don't have that many planes yet. so yeah for now, ships like this corvette is what the country needs. besides its a donation so pasalamat nalang tayo

[gotenks]

The PN is getting 2 SSV that could carry 3 helicopters,a battalion of men,AAVs that's the closest the PN can get to an aircraft carrier. PN is not going to invade any nation so no need for an aircraft carrier,an LPD later on where it can carry a dozen or more attack helicopters and men.

[freeyourmind]

learnt a similar type of corvette was sunk by a korean sub, probably modernize it with anti sub warfare.

Yup so that's why they upgraded the sonar on that class like the ASW version,it can be upraded with the Mark 32 torpedos and depth charges that should be enough for a coastal patrol craft. I like the Exocet for their SSM.

hahahahahaahah

yan din ang iniisip ng hapon noon atakihin nila Hawaii palubigin lahat ng battlehip even nag-focus pa nga sila sa mga mega-battleship nila Yamato and musashi in the end  aircraft carrier ang dominante  napalubog nila ang mga battleship ng hapon at that time germany ang medyo nakakauna sa long range missiles pero natalo sila

ngayon nasa missile ages na tayo battleship and aircraft carriers are just show of power obsolete na sila sa real na gyera

air supremacy ang uso ngayon

POHANG-CLASS CORVETTES
 Pohang-Class Corvettes are multi-purpose vessels categorized as Patrol Combat Corvette(PCC) of the Republic of Korea Navy (ROKN)--their main mission is coastal line defense, the first 4 ships are subclassified as ASUW (Anti-Surface Warfare) and the remaining 20 ships as ASW (Ati-Submarine Warfare). The lead ship Pohang (PCC-756) Pohang is already in a museum, the 2nd ship Gunsan (PCC-757) was donated to the Colombian Navy renamed as ARA Narino (but heck, there was confusion if it really is the Gunsan,PCC-757 or the Anyang,PCC-755, a Donghae Class PCC, perhaps they got both as a freebie , but that's another story). On the other hand, the 3rd and the 4th PCCs of this subclass the Gyeongju (PCC-758, built by Hyundai) and Mokpo (PCC-759, built by Daewoo S&M Eng'g) respectively and both commissioned in 1986 and are the next-in-line for future retirement as the Incheon-class frigate comes on-line for the ROKN. Further, that the Gyeongju and Mokpo are the last two-ships of Pohang-class subclassified as ASUW which differs to ASW, one of which is that they are armed with French MM38 Exocet Anti-Ship Missiles while the ASW carried the American Harpoons.

thats true sa battleship pero aircraft carriers still important lalo na kung super power like US or Russia aircraft carriers extension sya ng isang country in the middle of vast sea and it carries aircrafts!


 Powerfull countries like the US navy is unique.

They have their own Airforce - The carrier aircrafts

They have their own  Army - The marines

of course they have their boats!

Sino naman kaya sa Pinas ang marunong gumamit neto? Do we have the enough man navy's or Air Force para sumama sa giyera?? Eh sa mga domestic rebels nga di pa matapos tapos eh... lalaban pa sa ibang bansa? ang atupagin nila ay ang mga buwayang anjan nakaupo sa mataas na posisyon na siyang magkakapera at magbebenta sa pilipinas...

Yea this kinda boogle my mind now until December its 6 mos. to learn,familiarize,combat mode,I'm guessing the bulk of the crew will be coming from the Del Pilar Class frigates the sailors in that class should be ready to make a technological leap.

ha ahahahahah

natural mag-aaral sila e wala naman gyera anon gagawin nila nakaupo lang habang nakalutang sa dagat gamit ang mga yan at sisihin ang mga commanding officer dahil wala silang training

this is a new equipment  magkakaroon sila ng peak of interest at curiosity if there is curiosity there is learning

they have plenty of time to practice kahit ganyan ang mga sundalo natin may mga training din ang mga yan sa ibang bansa  di lang napapublish sa publiko

OO we may say that battleships are obsolete but we have to remember they are still usable and effective all it needs is an upgrade pwede namang lagyan g tomahawk cruise missile ah and besides 2 shots of the guns of the battleships can destroy any modern ships of today

If you can get close enough to fire the guns. Remember that missile range today are in the hundreds even thousands of kilometers. And if you argue that you can upgrade battleships to carry missiles, then why dont you just get a frigate/destroyer that are built to carry missiles in the first place kesa mag uupgrade upgrade ka pa?

Bottomline. Battleships are obsolete. The only thing it can do for a modern navy is offshore fire support while conducting an amphibious landing operation..

about the aircraft carriers naman.. yes, it would be great to have a carrier but do you seriously think the philippines can afford one? Isang frigate nga di natin magawa-gawang bumili carrier pa kaya?

Kayang bumili ng pilipinas ng kung tatangalin ang bidding, kickback, specifications at mga pondo ng mga politika

sure ka? Ever wonder why russia only has 1? France 1, china 1 second hand pa.. these are world powers mind you..

aircraft carrier is so expensive to maintain

maintenance cost ng USS enterprises The maintenance cost at the time of delivery was reported to be $662m 2010.
http://www.naval-technology.com/projects/uss-enterprise/ kung reliable ang source

budget na ng isang department sa barko pa lang yan wala pa yung mga jet fighters dyan at mga crew

kahit tanggalin pa ng kickback it will bankrupt the Philippine economy

yung bagong aircraft carrier na USS ford production cost is 12 billion dollars barko pa lang yan


mas mura pa nga ang ICBM dito at malaki pa ang destruction kaysa sa isang magastos na barko na madaling tamaan ng stealth bomber ng america or any cruise missiles or ng submarine
