It is the latest land based mobile communication platform
developed by the Army.
Col. Vener Odilon D. Mariano, PA Assistant Chief-of-Staff
for Command and Control Communication and Cyber System, said the PA Mobile C3
Center is the latest land based mobile communication platform developed by the
Army.
“This Mobile C3 Center will serve as the alternate Army Operations
Center
The PA Mobile C3 Center is equipped with major means of
communications ranging from high frequency (HF), very high frequency (VHF),

Hao said the PA’s participation in the earthquake drill aims
to prepare the military personnel and its dependents before, during and after
the earthquake to save lives and properties.
The Army’s HADR units were also alerted to respond during
the occurrence of disasters and calamities.
The PA is one of the government agencies that is immediately
