The Philippines President is on
the process of inspecting the FA-50 fighter jets that Philippines recently
acquired from the South Korean firm, the Korea Aerospace Industry (KAI).
Last March, Philippine Air Force (PAF)
signed the Php.18.9 billion contract for the purchase of 12 brand new fighter
jets in order to boost the poorly—equipped Philippine military under AFP
modernization program.
FA—50 has radar warning receiver
and a night imaging vision system that is capable of carrying a 4,500 kilograms
weapons and air —air missiles.
Just last August, the South
Korean media reported that China protested against the South Korea's plan to
donate 1,200—ton patrol boat and a landing vessel to Philippines.
