MANILA – The Philippine Navy has launched the "first in-country" assembled fast attack interdiction craft-missile (FAIC-M) at the Naval Shipyard in Cavite City.
Navy chief Vice Admiral Toribio Adaci Jr. said the launching of the BRP Albert Majini (PG-909) on Nov. 12 shows the renewed focus on revitalizing shipbuilding capabilities in the country.
"This milestone represents our progress in strengthening national security and our commitment to advancing the Self-Reliant Defense Posture (SRDP) program, particularly in shipbuilding," Adaci said.
The launching is a ceremony and a nautical tradition where the ship's hull is transferred from the water for the first time.
Present in the launching ceremonies were Defense Undersecretary Salvador Melchor Mison Jr., Ambassador of Israel to the Philippines Ilan Fluss and other ranking military and naval officials.
Under the contract with Israeli Shipyards Limited, which calls for the delivery of nine FAIC-Ms, the shipbuilder is also required to transfer technology to allow the Navy to beef up its shipbuilding capabilities.
These ships have quick intercept capabilities and top speed of 40 knots ideal for addressing current and emerging security threats.
The acquisition of the FAIC-M aims to reinforce the country’s littoral and coastal defense and allows the PN to effectively perform its mission of safeguarding the country’s maritime interests.
"This effort not only empowers our armed forces but also boosts our industries to further innovation and strengthen our maritime nation," Adaci said.

The Malaysian military has several weaknesses, including:
BalasHapus• Outdated equipment: Much of the Malaysian Armed Forces' (MAF) equipment is old and needs to be replaced. Most of the MAF's equipment was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s.
• Poor administration: The previous government's poor administration of defense allocations made it difficult to carry out projects and maintenance.
• Corruption: The MAF has been plagued by corruption.
• Political interference: Political leaders have interfered in procurement.
• Lack of modern assets: The government has been unable to provide the MAF with modern and latest defense assets.
• Regional comparison: The MAF's capabilities are far behind those of neighboring countries, such as Vietnam and Indonesia.
• Regional security: The MAF is no longer a potent force, even in managing low-level intensity conflict.
• Political stability: An unstable political situation can negatively impact economic and societal security.
========
The Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) faces several weaknesses, including:
• Underfunding
The RMN and other branches of the Malaysian military are struggling with limited funding for new assets and maintenance and repairs. The 2025 defense budget allocated 21.2 billion ringgit (US$4.9 billion) to the defense sector, but some say this is not enough to meet the country's needs.
• Aging fleet
The RMN's fleet is aging, which has left major capability gaps.
• Maritime security challenges
Malaysia faces maritime security challenges in all its maritime areas, not just the South China Sea. The country lacks the capacity to properly monitor its vast maritime areas.
• Location
The RMN's location between major powers' friction could make its waters a frontier if there is a naval power clash. This could jeopardize Malaysia's sovereignty and maritime interests.
The RMN's tactics include: Protecting itself from external aggression, Using its military force, Using diplomacy, Exploiting its strengths, and Concealing its weaknesses

The Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) faces a number of challenges, including:
• Maintenance of Sukhoi Su-30MKM Flanker combat aircraft
Sanctions against Russia by the European Union and the United States have impacted the maintenance of the RMAF's 18 Sukhoi Su-30MKM Flanker combat aircraft.
• Defence budget
The 2024 defence budget allocated $4.16 billion for defence, but more than 40% of that was for salaries and allowances.
• Replacing BAE Hawk 208/108 light fighters
The RMAF is purchasing 18 South Korean-made FA-50Ms to replace the BAE Hawk 208/108 light fighters and lead-in fighter trainers. The FA-50M aircraft are expected to be delivered in 2026
The Malaysian military is considered weak due to a number of factors, including:
Hapus• Limited funding
Malaysian governments have been unwilling to reduce government spending or the size of the military to fund defense.
• Outdated equipment
Much of the equipment in the Malaysian military was purchased between the 1970s and 1990s.
• Corruption
The Malaysian military has been plagued by corruption, including dishonest officials awarding contracts to ineffective suppliers.
• Lack of a coherent defense strategy
Malaysia lacks a strategy to manage threats from the sea, air, and cyber.
• Poor planning
The Malaysian military has poor planning and political leaders interfere with procurement.
• Lack of parliamentary engagement
The lack of a parliamentary committee leads to a lack of engagement with reports from the Auditor General.
• The Malaysian military is ranked 16th in military capability in Southeast Asia, behind Singapore, Indonesia, and Thailand
=======
The Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF) has faced several issues with its rifles, including:
• Logistics
Some say that the MAF has problems with the quality of its logistics equipment, and that there is a lack of explanation about the government's policy on developing it. Others say that the MAF has problems delivering spares to soldiers in a timely manner, which can lead to stalled vehicles and soldiers being unable to mobilize effectively.
• Technical and logistical problems
The MAF and local defense industry have faced many technical and logistical problems, including the need to integrate advanced weapon systems from different countries with differing technical standards and specifications.
• Procurement
The MAF has made diversified acquisitions, which can lead to increased costs.
• Government change
Frequent government changes since 2018 have hindered Malaysia's defense development. The government is currently grappling with the fiscal cost of the Covid-19 pandemic and the need to cut spending and reduce the national deficit.

The Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF) faces a number of challenges, including:
• Limited defense budget: Successive governments have been unwilling to cut spending elsewhere or reduce the size of the armed forces to fund defense. The 2024 defense budget allocated $4.16 billion, with $1.7 billion going to salaries and allowances.
• Aging equipment: The MAF has an aging equipment inventory due to small procurement budgets over the past quarter-century. For example, the air force's MiG-29 Fulcrum fighter aircraft were withdrawn from service in 2017.
• Lack of modern assets: The government is unable to provide the MAF with modern defense assets.
• Corruption: The MAF is riddled with corruption.
• Political interference: Political leaders interfere in procurement.
• Lack of clear guidance: The government lacks clear guidance for the future strategic direction of the defense industry.
• Minimal research and development: The MAF has minimal research and development activities.
• Reluctance of OEMs to share technology: Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are reluctant to share their technology for fear of additional competition.
• Inability of local companies: Local companies are unable to possess the necessary capabilities and capacities.
BalasHapusThe Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF) faces a number of challenges with its warships, including:
• Delayed replacements
More than half of Malaysia's fleet is past its prime, and vital replacements have been delayed.
• Unfinished ships
The first of five RM9 billion littoral combatant ships was due to be delivered in April 2019, but as of August 2022, no ship had been completed.
• Logistics issues
A study found that the MAF's rapid development since the Cold War has raised questions about its readiness to face threats.
• Outdated inventory
There are studies and writings on the weaknesses of MAF logistics equipment quality, but there is no thorough explanation on the government's stand in developing MAF logistics.
• Endurance
Some say that the endurance of the LCS was too low to stay with a carrier strike group or amphibious ready group without significant refueling.
• Air and surface warfare capabilities
Some say that the LCS lacked significant air and surface warfare capabilities.
Malaysia also faces maritime security threats, such as piracy, armed robbery, and the illegal exploitation of marine resources.
