The Department of National Defense (DND) just unveiled the Project BUHAWI, a locally made Remote Weapons Station (RWS) for Machine Guns (MG) up to .50 cal.
"BUHAWI" in this case stands for "Building a Universal mount for Heavy-barrel Automated Weapon Integration". The Philippine Navy (PN) seems to be spearheading this project, so we might see these on their ships.
A similar project was initiated by the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) in the 2000s called Project Trident Strike thru a local University, but that didn't seem to have panned out.
This Project Buhawi was run by the Department of Science and Technology (DoST), DOST's Metals Industry Research and Development Center (MIRDC) and the Mechatronics and Robotics Society of the Philippines (MRSP).
This is a great project, hope to see this become successful and adopted by the AFP on their assets.
