Next year’s “Balikatan” exercises between Filipino and American forces will give more focused on maritime or naval drills, in contrast to past editions which are more land-based and more intensive, according to Armed Forces of the Philippines chief Gen. Romeo Brawner Jr.
He said some of the possible maritime drills for next year’s “Balikatan” include naval gunnery, anti-submarine drills, resupply at sea, and helicopter landing drills or flight deck exercises. Among the highlights of the exercise were the sinking of the decommissioned World War II BRP Pangasinan which was blasted by combined Filipino and American forces off Zambales last April 26.
The AFP chief asserted that Bajo de Masinloc is part of Philippine territory, contrary to claims made by China.
