Brahmos Missile

Philippines had been thru many hardships by the conquerors. The country had been conquered by Spaniards for 333 years then Americans conquered as again since the Spain sell the Philippines to America during the treaty of Paris. Lots of heroes fights and sacrifice their lives for freedom like General Luna, General Gregorio Del Pillar and many more. The independence was acquired and Philippines achieved democracy but another conqueror came which are Japanese which lead to downfall of Filipinos and many human rights violation had been caused by the Japanese soldiers.

When Japanese got defeated due to bombing of Hirmoshima and Nagasaki, the Japanese surrendered to America and the Philippines also achieved freedom. The country had been put on lots of hardships and struggles that's the reason why the soldiers are well trained to prepare for upcoming invasions. Like what Douglas Mc Arthur said before to the Filipino soldiers, he just need 10 thousand Filipino soldiers just to conquer the world. I know he said it to boost the moral of soldiers but I know he's serious and mean that Filipino soldiers are so strong. The Philippines ranked 51st in world rank when it comes to military power and 7th in Southeast Asia.

The country is not yet fully developed when it comes to weapons and armory but the country had a strong and brave army which ready to defend the sovereignty. The Philippines had lots of rebels including the MILF, MNLF, Abusayaf, CPP-NPA, Maute group that was defeated during the battle in Marawi City. The government managed to get rid them off and have peace talks but despite of those victories. We can clearly see that Philippines are lack of advance weapons that can equalize the military power of other nations. The country had few tanks, few planes, a one carrier, few battle ships and no submarines.

We can conclude that the country is not that advance and not ready to fight when other countries will plan to invade the archipelago. We don't have any match on air attacks since where having lack of air defense. However you can't belittle Filipino soldiers, we have the ultimate soldiers that can fight on battle ground and their specializations to fight in the woods. They are called Musang or also known as Philippine Scout Rangers, they are the most brave and powerful soldiers of this country that manage to accomplished hard missions.

They are soldiers which trained very hard, they are trained to death and willing to fight for this country. They are well trained that can easily outplay their enemies without any knowledge in the woods. They can survive in harsh conditions and trees are their friends you can't easily defeat a musang if we talk a manual battle but when it comes to advance weapons then this country and its soldier had no match for nuclear weapons and missiles.

A good news is, the defense secretary Lorenzana, sign a contract and negotiate with Indian government in purchasing BRAHMOS missile which is a mid range super sonic missile that can easily pierced any incoming vessels or planes that illegally entering on sovereign of this country. The missile was named after the Ricer that can be found in Russia and river found in India. It was made by company in India specialized with weapons and missiles. The BRAHMOS missile is currently the most fastest missile in the world which encompasses the speed of sound.

The government of Philippines bought it for whopping hundreds of millions of dollars which billions of worth in Philippine Peso. We owned now the missile which can be carried by ship, a truck and a submarine but the government is planning to buy a submarine. Im glad the President Duterte made a move to buy missiles in order to make this country secure from those countries planning planning invade.

We are currently at 40 percent I our military power and hoping that the next administration will focus on upgrading the defesof this country specially those soldiers and police that had lack of weapons and only using those not that high grade weapons. The Philippines wants to show that we are not afraid to be invade and also a warn to other countries which planning to illegally enter into our sovereignity.
