first things first.... M1 Abrams are design to counter Soviet Russia invasion on Europe during the cold war... it works well in desert since its vast...
small tank, APC and FSV fits our terrain well....

what we really need are...
More COIN prop aircraft, why? slower prop aircraft are better than Jet plane....
More Huey,Huey-2 and Super Huey... why? minimize training on new system
LPD

Re: Philippine Tanks and Armored Cars
yes. our real threat is internal. we dont really need something fancy like jets..(but then again we need it for our airpatrols) and tanks. what we need is better transports and training. and of course the full support of the community.

PZL W-3 Sokół
The PZL W-3 Sokół (Polish for "Falcon") is a Polish medium-size, twin-engine, multipurpose helicopter manufactured by PZL-Świdnik (now AgustaWestland Świdnik).
Development
The W-3 Sokół ('Falcon') is the first helicopter to be fully designed and serial-built in Poland.
Work on the project was started at WSK PZL Świdnik in 1973 by the team of Stanisław Kamiński. The Sokół made its first flight on November 16, 1979, and has since been certificated in Poland, Russia, the US and Germany. Following a fairly protracted development program, low rate production of the Sokół commenced during 1985. Initial sales of the general purpose Sokół were within Poland and in the Eastern Bloc, before the collapse of Communism allowed PZL Swidnik to broaden its sales base. To do this PZL Swidnik developed the improved W3A Sokół aimed at achieving Western certification. Certification to US FAR Pt 29 standards was granted in May 1993, while German certification was granted in December of that year.
The Sokół is of conventional design and construction, with two PZL-10W turboshafts, which are based on the PZL-10S - licensed Russian designed TVD-10B turboprops that power the Polish-built An-28. Composites are used in the three-bladed tail and four-bladed main rotors.
The Sokół is offered in a number of variants and is capable of performing a typical range of helicopter missions, including passenger transport, VIP, cargo, EMS, medevac, firefighting and search and rescue.
The 100th Sokół was completed in June 1996.
Philippine Air Force ordered 8 W-3WA units for its Combat Utility Helicopter (CUH) requirement, schedule for delivery 4th quarter of 2011

Re: Philippine Tanks and Armored Cars
