The PN’s AW159 Wildcat Helicopters to be Operational by November 2020

The Philippine Navy’s (PN) AW159 Wildcat Helicopters will be fully operational only by November of this year (2020). They were commissioned into service in June 2019, hence almost 1 ½ years before becoming operational.

But by that time, the Ships they are going to serve in, the Jose Rizal class Frigates would have been delivered already if there is no slip in the schedule.

Earlier news reports said that the BRP Jose Rizal (FF-150) Frigate is scheduled to be delivered by April or May 2020 while the BRP Antonio Luna (FF-151) Frigate will be delivered by September or October 2020.
