Philippines’ Weaponry is Increasingly Getting Lethal

The Philippines is significantly enhancing its defense capabilities through the $35 billion Revised Horizon 3 program, aimed at upgrading military assets amidst escalating regional tensions in the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait. This modernization includes acquiring advanced frigates, corvettes, missile systems, and surveillance technologies from international partners like the United States and Israel. Key enhancements include the installation of US mid-range missile systems, the acquisition of BrahMos cruise missiles, and advanced air defense systems like the SPYDER. The strategic placement of these assets, particularly in Northern Luzon and the West Philippine Sea, underscores the Philippines' commitment to defending its sovereignty and contributing to regional stability. Additionally, the Philippines is bolstering its defense industry and infrastructure, emphasizing cooperation with allies, and integrating advanced technologies, such as Lethal Autonomous Weapons Systems (LAWS), to ensure operational readiness. Despite economic challenges, these efforts reflect a robust strategy to address security threats, maintain peace, and uphold international norms in the Indo-Pacific region.
