filipina sudah mulai sadar juga ternyata....pelan tapi pasti, secara perlahan kemampuan militernya semakin ditingkatkan.
BalasHapusBetul sob,filipina sdh sadar harus mau dan berusaha sendiri ngebangun kekuatan militernya sendiri buat pertahanan mandiri,tanpa minta/ngemis sahabatnya si US yg ternyata setengah hati alias bukan sohib sejati kayak rusia dan suriah. Mumpung belum terlambat. Kita doain aja sohib RI ni yg gak pernah bikin resek tetangga2nya,punya anggaran pertahanan lebih baik lagi,shgga bisa belanja kebthan/militernya lbh besar. Ngomong2 nih mo nanya beda T50 punya TNI AU ma Pilipine air force,pada apanya yah? Maklum kurang info sob?!
BalasHapusyang punya PAF itu full combat bisa bawa rudal dan elektroniknya memang buat fighter jet.
BalasHapuskalo TNI-AU yang basic dan buat training, tapi kalo dipaksain juga bisa bawa bom biasa.
