00:00The AFP is scheduled to send a new Typhoon Missile System to the US tomorrow
00:05that can reach the targets up to China from the Philippines.
00:09But the AFP clarified that it's just for practice.
00:13Watch Chino Gaston.
00:19In a ceremony at Fort Pagsaysay in Nueva Ecija,
00:22the Philippine Army launched the Salaknib and Balikatan Exercises 2025 or SABAC 2025.
00:29Troops of the Philippine Army and US Army Pacific will train in different locations in the Philippines.
00:34According to the Philippine Army,
00:36the joint all-domain operations, war-fighting capabilities,
00:40and the expansion of the territory of the Philippines,
00:43as well as the humanitarian assistance and counter-intelligence.
00:46In the Salaknib exercise,
00:483,000 Filipinos and 2,000 American soldiers will participate in different training
00:53that will be conducted from March to July.
00:56In the Salaknib exercise in 2024,
00:58the US deployed the Typhoon Medium-Range Capability Missile System
01:03that can destroy missiles from the Philippines
01:06to the eastern China, Taiwan, or any part of the West Philippine Sea.
01:10China repeatedly threatened the maintenance of the Typhoon in the Philippines.
01:15But the missile system is still in the country,
01:18some of which were transferred from the northern part of Ilocos
01:21towards the designated area.
01:24Now, the AFP has received a message from the US Indo-Pacific Command
01:28that another battery of the MRC will be sent to the region.
01:32If it is sent to the Philippines, it is ready to be received by the AFP.
01:36The more, the merrier.
01:37So the more assets that we have,
01:39the more also that we are able to train more personnel on our part.
01:43So we are accepting this willingly.
01:46To clarify, the AFP will not fight the Typhoon in other countries
01:51and will only practice to be ready
01:54if the Philippines buys it.
01:56China has yet to say anything about this.
01:58For GMA Integrated News,
02:00I am Chino Gaston of Saksi.
02:04My fellow countrymen,
02:05be the first in Saksi.
