The Philippine Navy is planning to upgrade its MPAC (multi-purpose attack craft) squadron into a force capable of harassing foreign ships that may intrude in the country's EEZ.
The Philippine Navy currently operates six MPACs, three of which were obtained from Taiwan and the other three from Filipino shipbuilder Propmech Corporation which is based in Subic Bay, Zambales.
Philippine Navy officials said the MPACs are suited for these mission as they could go in, attack or harass the offending vessel and evade quickly. To create the capability, more heavier weapons and longer range sensors and surveillance will be installed on these 45-knot small craft.
Each one costs around Php 90 million. The hull is made of high-quality aluminum and is crewed by one officer and four enlisted personnel.
