The philippine air force is being provided with php139.319 billion (around 2.73 billion usd) for their part of the Horizon 2 (2018-2022) defence plan.
There would be 16 projects ubter the new Horizon 2 for PAF. Some of it are:
- Maritime patrol aircraft. Probably 4 medium MPAs. C-295? CN-235?
- Surface Attack Aircraft (SAA) / Lead Fighter Trainer Aircraft (LFTA). Thia would probably be additional 12 FA-50s
- Multi-Role Fighter (MRF) Aircraft. 12 units. Gripens? Tejas? used F-16s?
- attack helicopters. 24 units. HAL Rudra? Z-19E? used AH-1Ws?
What do you think is the best combination based on the political consideration, budget and timeframe available?

My take
- MPA. 4 C-95MPA. 200 million usd.
- SAA/LIFT. 12 FA-50. 450 million usd
- MRF. 12 F-16. With SLEP to 13,856 flying hours and general upgrades. Upgrades to F-16V only in Horizon 3. With weapons package. 750 million usd.
- attack helicopters. 24 AH-1W. 200 million usd.
Total around 1.6 billion usd, with lots to spare for other projects in horizon 2, ground radars, ground based air defence, bombs and missiles for the fighters etc.[/quote]
