medyo ok ang planu nila ah each plane cost lets just $ 30M thats around P 1.3 Billion Pesos maintenance nila and we have to send pilots abroad on the training of how to use the plane the parts just incase something breaks down have to be purchased abroad the operating expenses will run around another $ 10M or around P430M.

Not bad naman but sana may matira naman sa budget on Pa sweldo sa mga militar housing ng mga sundalo and benefits ng mga sundalo natin.

The idea is good sana mapunta sa mabuting kamay ang pera ng bayan. We need to upgrade naman our airforce.

Kung hindi lang sana corrupt mga officials natin marami na sana tayong ganito. Nakaka lungkot isipin pati mga weapons natin maka luma pa rin.

buy predator or reaper drones na lang @ 1/10 the price of a full plane. and the trained pilots won't be in danger.

I'd rather put the money in economy rather than defense, 2 measly jets won't be able to protect our country anyways, It would be better to feed poor people who does not even have the capability to eat once a day, than  investing in a metal junk that won't be used in any positive way and I'm pretty sure a lot of corrupt politicians would get a lot of sidelines and payoffs from this deal. Just my two-cent opinion though. ::secret

Maski ano bilhin nilang jet, meron talaga commission sa sales.  That's a part of commerce and whether you like it or not, part ng cost of sales yan ng anumang bilihan. Pag sa US bumili, ang alam ko eh they don't allow a commission of more than Two Percent (2%).  Remember the Lockheed case.  Pag sa Russia, yan ang mas malaking commission.  Meron pa rin mga kikita pero we have to allow that  so long as meron tayong military hardware.  Ang gusto nyo yata eh tawaran pa ang price tag eh sino naman magbebenta sa yo nyan.  Sa mga nagsasabi na gastusin na lang yan sa mga "mahihirap", that's being naive.  Para din yan sa simpleng tahanan - bakit ka pa bibili ng computer or cell phone eh di ibili mo na lang ng pagkain, diba?  May mga bagay na di lang para sikmura or katawan ng tao, meron din kailangan bilhin para sa iyong isipan or puso or sekyuridad.

For our immediate needs, dapat lang bumili agad ng ganyan. Pero in the long run, they better tie up with European or US defense contractors to get the technology and make those jets or seacrafts in the Philippines. Ganyan ginawa ng Japan, kumuha ng technology from a US defense contractor and they have their own fighter jet now na gawa sa Japan. Ditto with Korea.  Ganyan din ginawa ng India na manufacture na mga patrol crafts sa India.  That will also create jobs.

useless: kung mag-me-maintain tayo ng malaking navy at air forces dahil wala naman tayong sapat na resources para matustusan ang pangangailan nito. (example: oil at metal resources; gold or dollar reserves para maka-import.) kailangan muna nating bumenta ng mas lalong maraming OFW para ma-afford ang gagastusin sa pananatili nito.

it's a good thing though: na magkaroon tayo one or two ng katulad ng f-18 or mig-29 para maka-keep up naman tayo sa ibang bansa na may modern weapons at di lang mga WWII relics.

Magagalit ang US sa atin kung ang MIG ang kukunin natin kasi sila ka-alyado kaya mas pipiliin pa rin yung Hornet ang kukunin
