K745 Blue Shark Torpedo now in service with the PN

The Philippine Navy (PN) announced today that the K745 Chung Sang Eo (Blue Shark) Torpedoes are now in service.

They arrived in July 2019, and this will now give our assets capable of using them FULL Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) capability.

This means that our AW159 Wildcat Helicopters and the BRP Conrado Yap (PS-39) Corvette can now not only detect and track enemy Submarines using their Sonar sensors, they can now attack them also if necessary using these Torpedoes.

The two Jose Rizal class Frigates scheduled for delivery next year will also be able to use these Torpedoes.
