Can anyone tell me sino ang dapat kausapin kun ano ang design na gusto nila? I just need the design and the cost estimates and I will help find the money to build it here in our country.
1) Because it isn't easy to design, test, and build ships to military specifications.
- You build large commercial ships in the shipyards of Hanjin, Austal, Tsuneishi, etc., but they are not Philippine designs.
2) You need the talent for it.
- They are not in the Philippines
) Economics. You need a market for it.
- Can't go through all that effort and end up building only one or two ships.
4. It needs massive state support to just survive its conception and eventually thrive.
- None of which your politicians seem to be enthusiastic about.
- Nor are they willing to set aside funds for it.
5. Naval Architects of our country are employed in DEFENSE R&D OF GOVERNMENT of other countries."
6. A military ship is not just a hull with engines. Combat systems account for a large portion of a naval ship's cost. Yes, we can already make merchant ships, but naval ships are a different story.
