Philippine Navy selects PT PAL for SSV procurement
Indonesia's PT PAL has been selected to construct two strategic sealift vessels (SSVs) for the Philippine Navy (PN). PT PAL executive Edy Andarto told IHS Jane's on 10 January that the company has received a notice of award (NoA) from the PN to build the ships, and that a contract will be signed soon.
Andarto also confirmed that PT PAL had offered the PN an SSV design based loosely on the Makassar-class landing platform docks (LPDs) that the company constructed for the Indonesian Navy. The Makassar-class platform was designed by South Korean company Daesun.
The SSV programme, which replaced and downsized a previous amphibious multirole vessel project, is worth PHP4 billion (USD90 million).
