DND to acquire 10 amphibian vehicles for PMC

From the Philippine News Agency (Dec 17): DND to acquire 10 amphibian vehicles for PMC

In line with its efforts to make the Philippine Marine Corps (PMC) more mobile, the Department of National Defense (DND) announced that it is acquiring 10 small amphibian vehicles for use of the military unit.

The project is worth P105 million with integrated logistic support.

These vehicles, once acquired and put into service, will give the PMC the ability to ford flooded areas, swollen creeks and rivers, making it the ideal asset for disaster response.

The money will be sourced from the AFP Modernization Program.

Invitation is ongoing for bidders who must complete a similar project within the last five years.
