We should upgrate our Logistic Support Vessel BRP Dagupan to helicopter carrier variant to accomodate 3 Huey II Gunship Helicopters or MG 520 attack helicopter  and deploy it to the Spratlys Islands to support our external defense mission there together with BRP Gregorio Del Pilar and BRP Emilo Jacinto to form Task Force Spratlys. It will be easier to do this because the PN and PAF had already experience in Interoperability exercise DAGIT yearly in Sangley Naval Station.

There is already an airstrip in Pag-asa island.

43rd IB returns to 8ID, its mother unit from an almost 3-year deployment (2008-2011) in Lanao Norte. 3LAB of LAD was also brought down from Northern Luzon to become part of 2nd Mech Brigade deployed in Lanao...

MANILA, Philippines - Instead of toys, clothes and the usual items people receive during the holidays, the residents of Iligan and Cagayan de Oro cities will receive coffins on Christmas Eve.

As early as 6 a.m. today, volunteers and Philippine Navy personnel started loading 500 white caskets donated by local government units in Pampanga province to the BRP Dagupan.

a little OT but since my training is in logistics, im just trying to determine if government can actually save non-combat related logistic run to private sector.

im wondering whats the full load of BRP Dagupan for this trip and whats the cost?

a Full Container Load (FCL) to Cagayan averages P25,000-30,000/TEU and its faster at 18-20 knots.  transit time is about 35 hours.

if the NDRCC has coordinated with shipping lines, they can actually get a free ride.

NN+ATS & 2GOoffered free transfer of relief goods to Cagayan & Iligan for free... they have 4x a week trip to CDO via 3 ropax & 1 freighter... the ropax are travelling average of 18-20 knots... transit time is about 35 hours including port stay in Cebu.

since they have the frequency (4x a week), some of the stuff can leave for CDO earlier instead of waiting for LC-551 to get the full load.

Wow! 35 hours, with this rate them aid may not be enough. I hope the PN would request for faster logistics ships, ones that could travel 30-35 knots and hopefully cut the travel time for the aid. Hopefully newer navy ships will have at least 35-40 knots capability

EE-T4 Ogum RECCON VEHICLE
 


The EE-T4 Reccon Vehicle is a brilliant vehicle. Quick, light armored and have it armed with a RCWS equipted with a 0.50 cal HMG and 40mm AGL combo i'm ganna be happy with it. Better yet install a 20-25mm RCWS with a co-axial 7.62mm MG to it, Hell… just perfect for the Philippine Army.

Weisel is cute but the EE-T4, makes you go Wow!!! Send a pack of them and they could drive fast and deep into the Philippine Jungle and we could clear the rebels alot sooner. Hopefully the GA or PA R&D looks into this vehicle and craft our own version of the EE-T4, calling our version "Daga" would be fitting.

Ever see a pack of rats converge on unattended meal, a sight of the EE-T4 RP version moving in would give any rebel LBM.

LC-551 was quoted with a speed of 12-14 knots only... transit time MNL-CDO was at 60 hours (if i heard it correctly)

Reality check please... The fastest cargo ships in the world (Algol/Sea-Land Class) run at 33 knots. Most logistics vessels run at less than 16 knots sustained, mainly due to the economics of propelling a large vessel at high speeds.

Wow Mr.F , you are still thinking of the expenses when constituents of GRP are direly need some help, Relief operations of GRP/DND/AFP can contribute some gains in ISO... Remember ISO is not only for armed conflict,.. If those people didn't see any help from the government and you know the Neps are expert on exploiting this kind of scenario, next time you will see monument of Ka Rosal Vinegar in the town...  :jeez:
