Vietnam also trying to buy another ex Hamilton class for the coastguard View attachment 187519
and building 2 new 4000t DN4000 class
View attachment 187520
after recent incident we can see that coast guard and fishery force worth every $$ spend on them ( but remember you also need a navy that can damage your enemy if they desire to used gun )

Vietnam bought the Hamilton, I thought the US donated it like they did for the Philippines?

None of those ships were donated, even the Philippines paid for the ships and its upgrades.

I would think that the spare parts of these devices are easily attainable, especially in countries where there was a manufacturing license for the aircraft or its components, on the other hand, we must also think about the cannibalization of devices to keep some in flight, the quantities of those helicopters must have been numerous.

Do you know what the total cost per ship was?

BRP Ramon Alcaraz (FF-16), the second frigate in the class, was the former USCGC Dallas cutter. It was acquired by the Philippines in May 2012 and was renovated at a cost of $15.15m.

Gregorio del Pilar Class Frigates

The Gregorio del Pilar-class multi-role frigates are intended to improve the maritime security of the Philippines in the South China Sea.

Different boats cost differently depending on the retrofit that was done, im not sure but one of the ships was in such a bad state that it barely had an engine to use.

I find it interesting that the units afloat of the Vietnam Navy are being named after the emperors, how long have they been doing it?

well they are name after not only emperor but general,poet,... vv anyone that are great contribute to the country , from the look only 2000t and above war ship are giving name and special role ship like training sail ship , oceanic/hydro resreach ship ( I think the submarine rescue ship gona get a name too , have to wait until it launch ) , well during Vietnam war in the north we didn't have any big war ship so they didn't given name , but in the south they navy ship where giving name , after Vietnam war we get few of them ( majority flee to Philippine and the Philippines used all of them , some are still in service up to 2016s in the Philippines navy ( I think they still have 1 landing craft from the south Vietnam navy in service not sure ) only 2 landing craft and 1 war ship above 2000t so the navy didn't gift it name .

not japan that I know for sure , either Australia or America and the fleet was send to either Australia or America for major over hault back in late 2000s and I think it Australia if it back in the 2000s cause we have better relation with Australia back then then with the America ( I think even now day Vietnam and Australia have pretty good relation on military sphere compare to American , our UN detachment are send to south sudan by Australian C17 )

domestic built SAR vessel belong to the navy ( the design I think are buy from the Russian weight around 700t ) behind is a DK1 rig that are set up in the 80s to defend Vietnam eez ( the Chinese HD08 are near those dk1 rig , Vietnam have foreseen the problem since the 80s and prepare since then , the dk1 rig are near vung tau in southern part of Vietnam , no where near china
