霉菌还在用的P－3螺桨机，居然倭寇退役，改用自产的喷气反潜巡逻机 http://news.usni.org/2015/09/21/opinon-the-philippines-military
It is strongly believed that the recent announcement by Japan to start
retiring their license-built P-3 Orions in favor of homebuilt Kawasaki P-1
jets may have put a wrench in the Philippines’ intentions to buy new
maritime patrol planes. Japan’s Orions are generally acknowledged to be the
best maintained out of all existing models currently in service; it would
not have been a far jump for the Philippines to succumb to the idea yet
again of gaining incremental improvements at a lower acquisition cost. It is
that type of thinking that needs to be burned out of national defense
planning.
