While its Own Navy Waits, Canada Sells Military Helicopters to the Philippines

While its own navy waits, Canada sells military helicopters to the Philippines | Daily Brew - Yahoo News Canada

There's a certain amount of irony in word that Canada is selling new military helicopters to the Philippines when it's in its third decade of trying to procure replacements for the navy's ancient Sea Kings.Postmedia News reports the sprawling Pacific island nation will spend more than $100 million to buy eight Bell 412 helicopters from Canadian Commercial Corporation, a federal Crown corporation that helps industry with government-to-government business.The purchase, along with the purchase of 12 Korean-built jet fighter-trainers for $420 million, is part of a program to bolster the Philippine military against growing Chinese pressure in the South China Sea.

I didn't mean that only Pakistan Air Force has some patent rights on using the word "P", it was a humble suggestion to avoid confusion, nothing more, noting less.
This site is called Pakistan Defence Damn it! so yeah it is patented...... :pdf:

I thought Pakistan Air Force is going to purchase Bell 412.. lol

This Philipine airforce acquisition threads get me every time...:mad:
 
.
It should be PhAF

@Aeronaut can you fix the title, can you change all philippines air force related threads to PhAF rather than PAF.
