Perhaps China could have donated these FAC (Fast Attack Craft) Type 22 patrol boats. China built 83 of these boats but they have already retired about 20+ them in recent years. 60 boats remain in service.







Type 22 (NATO designation: Houbei class) missile boat is a ship class in the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy.

The Type 22 is designed to patrol China’s coastal areas and operate within its littoral zone.

The first boat was launched in April 2004 by the Hudong-Zhonghua Shipyard at Shanghai.

The ship is armed with eight anti-ship missiles (AShM). It is also armed with possible QW class MANPAD missiles and one licensed copy of KBP AO-18 6-barrel 30 mm gun (AK-630).

The boats incorporate stealth features and are based on Australian-designed wave-piercing catamaran hulls that are more stable than other fast missile craft in high sea conditions.

In addition to the stealthy polygonal-designed superstructure with its stealthy gun mount, the Type 22 has an advanced C4 (Command, Control, Communication, and Computers) datalink that may represent some kind of capability to allow AWACS planes or other ships to vector the Type 22’s missiles. The aluminium hull is reported to use friction stir welding.

The ships are 20 long tons (224 t) full load and are 42 meters long.

They have a top speed of 36 knots

From Maxdefense:

Philippine Army troops training with what appears to be a FIM-92 Stinger Man-Portable Air Defense Systems (MANPADS) as part of AFP Joint Exercise DAGIT-PA 2018.

And for those asking, these are not just the only goodies in AFP service that are kept in the dark. At least it was the AFP who made this public.
