@nakazatoGTR

I was wondering did the WHECs that the Phillipines purchased retain the Phalanx CIWS?

[nakazatoGTR]

you said it yourself fan-gay:

Gepard Class Stealth Frigate : $200m each

i said:

378' WHEC:$15m Each

and WHECS would be learning steps to a better OPV.

YOU=LACK LOGIC.

AGAIN TROLL

NOW WHO IS THE CONTRADICTORY FREAK?

YOU=WANTS USSR WEAPONRY for Phil Military

Feasibility = nil due to age old acceptance and familiarity with the AR platform

YOU=Emphasize Numbers rather than Quality

Example: you value numbers of rifles rather than Accurate riflemanship.

ahhh you kid.

@technical010

Primary reason why PN got 378' WHEC:

Build PN's Familiarity with CODOG system propulsion And Internationally accepted and proven Mk92 FCS and Mk75 76.2mm Oto Melara.

ITs JUST BABY STEPS FOOL.
