Скачать или смотреть BRP Rajah Humabon: The Last WWII Warship and the Future of the Philippine Navy

The story of the BRP Rajah Humabon (PS-11) captures both the struggles and ambitions of the Philippine Navy. Once the world’s last active World War II warship, Rajah Humabon symbolized decades of neglect in maritime defense. Today, as the Philippines retires its “floating museum” fleet and pursues Horizon 3 modernization—with frigates, offshore patrol vessels, BrahMos missiles, and even submarines—the question is whether Manila can finally escape its past.

This video explores why the Philippines relied on WWII-era ships for so long, what this meant for sovereignty in the South China Sea, and how current modernization efforts aim to transform the navy into a credible deterrent force. Can the Philippines succeed, or will it remain dependent on allies in the Indo-Pacific?
