00:00The Philippines is one of the countries participating in the Pitch Black Exercises in Darwin, Australia

00:04that will start today.

00:06Let's hear from Chino Gaston.

00:11For the first time, the Philippines will bring its own fighter jets

00:16to the Pitch Black Exercises 2024 that will be held in Darwin, Australia.

00:20The interoperability flights, night flying, simulated aerial attacks,

00:27and the interdiction of unidentified aircraft entering the country's airspace.

00:33Twenty-one countries will participate in the Pitch Black Exercises 2024

00:37that will be held here at Darwin Air Base in Darwin, Australia

00:41where a large contingent of F-A-50 fighter jets will be sent by the Philippine Air Force.

00:47Here, our fighter jet pilots are expected to perform well

00:51and they will also be given a chance to compare the performance

00:55of our fighter jets with the newer aircraft from other countries.

01:01On Saturday, the Royal Australian Air Force KC-30 transport aircraft

01:06and crew and maintenance personnel arrived for the F-A-50 fighter jets.

01:11The contingents of the Italian Air Force and their fighter jets also arrived.

01:15The fighter jets from the US, UK, Japan, India, Canada, France, Germany, and others will also arrive.

01:25The Philippine Air Force's fighter jets will arrive soon.

01:28Almost 200 people will be involved in the exercises.

01:34According to the Philippine Air Force,

01:36the preparation for the Pitch Black Exercises 2024 is not related to tensions between China and the Philippines in the West Philippine Sea.

01:42For the current issues or concerns, especially in our region,

01:48this is not directly involved in this issue

01:54because we have not been involved in such exercises for a long time.

02:00It is just a coincidence that this year, or the iteration of Pitch Black 2024,

02:06we have already traveled far to join our aircraft.

02:10Pitch Black is also a good opportunity to see the performance of different fighter jets from different countries

02:18to help choose which multi-role jet fighters will be purchased

02:23when President Bongbong Marcos approves the budget.

02:27From here in Darwin, Australia,

02:29Chino Gaston reporting for GMA Integrated News.
