The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) is set to receive 40 fast patrol boats from France starting in 2026. These boats are intended to enhance the PCG’s ability to respond to disasters, conduct anti-crime operations, and improve maritime security. The vessels will help in the fight against piracy, terrorism, and drug trafficking. The boats will be acquired under a blended financing arrangement with the French government, strengthening the Philippines’ maritime law enforcement capabilities.
