They originally requested 144 Light Tanks for the Horizon 2 phase of AFP Modernization.[19]
Elbit Systems won the Light Tank Acquisition Project, with the Notice of Award (NOA) issued by the Department of National Defense in September 2020. The Army will receive Sabrah Light Tanks consisting of 18 tracked version and 10 wheeled version. These will be armed with a new 105 mm gun developed by Elbit in partnership with Denel Land Systems.[6] Also included in the package is 1 tracked armored command vehicle and 1 tracked armored recovery vehicle.[19]
The Philippine Army is also studying an offer from the Japanese Ministry of Defense for the possible donation of the Type 74main battle tank.[156] Negotiations for similar developments are currently ongoing, yet little is known within the planned offer.[157]
APC acquisition and upgrade program
The Philippine Army has been considering the upgrade of several dozens of Simba and V-1504x4 armored vehicles. However, due to budget difficulties, it has to choose which projects to prioritize. To improve the mobility of the Armor Division, as well as introduce a new model to complement and eventually replace ageing assets, the Philippine Army submitted a request for the acquisition of a new fleet of wheeled Armoured Personnel Carriers (APC). They originally requested 114 APCs for the Horizon 2 phase of AFP Modernization.[158]
In October 2020, the Notice of Award for the Wheeled Armored Personnel Carrier Acquisition Project was issued to Elbit Systems which offered 28 units of IVECO Guarani 6x6 armored vehicle.[158][159]
There was a previous report from Thailand where in it was mentioned that the Thai government is nearing a G2G agreement with the Philippines to supply 200 units of First Win 2 4x4 wheeled armored vehicle to the Philippine Army to resist ambush tactics, IED explosions, and landmines.[160][161]

Its objective is to provide the Philippine Army a long range tactical capability to defend the country from foreign naval threats especially those directly threatening the Philippine mainland. The missile system will be operated by the Army Artillery Regiment.[163]
The Land Based Missile System (LBMS) Acquisition Project is a Horizon 2 phase Priority Project under the Revised AFP Modernization Program. It is the successor to the cancelled Shore Based Missile System (SBMS) Acquisition Project back in 2015.[163]
In 2018, the plan was part of the ₱300 billion PHP(US$5.6 billion)Horizon 2 phase projects, with the budget for the Land-Based Missile System approved by President Duterte in June 2018. The BrahMos Missile Systems from India being the main contender for the project where at least 2 batteries set to be acquired. The project was delayed due to the pandemic.[164]
Multiple-launch rocket system
South Korea donated four batteries of retired K136 Kooryong multiple-launch rocket system (MLRS), related equipment and ammunitions to the AFP.[165] Of the four batteries, three would go to the Philippine Army.[166] One battery can consist of between four and six firing units.[167] The delay is due to the non-released for funds for its shipment from South Korea to the Philippines.[168] In July 2022, various reports indicated that the Philippine Army will no longer pursue the acquisition of the Kooryongs and favored the acquisition of newer and more modern systems.[169]
The Philippine Army also laid out plans to acquire long range rocket artillery systems, such as the K239 Chunmoo from South Korea and the PULS from Israel, as part of the Horizon 3 of the Modernization Program.[170][171] Both systems were preferred over the M142 HIMARS rocket systems due to high costs, although the said US-made MLRS are also being considered by the Philippine Army in a separate acquisition program.[172] The acquisition also covers proposals to acquire Tactical ballistic missiles, such as the Ure tactical ballistic missile for long range island defense operations.[173][174]
Anti-tank missile system
During the 2023 Balikatan Exercises, the Philippine Army expressed plans for the acquisition of the FGM-148 Javelin, as test run exercises for firing the missile system were conducted during the exercises.[175][176] The Philippine Army also noted the missile system's performance during the Russo-Ukrainian War and could potentially serve as one of the key backbones of the Army's focus towards the shift to external defense.[177][178] Other potential candidates include the AT-1K Raybolt and the Spike MR, while also drawing interest to procure the M4 Carl Gustaf recoilless rifle.[137] On 11 November 2024, the Army released a notice of award to procure the AT-1K Raybolt system in limited numbers to serve as a test acquisition and evaluation purposes. More units are also planned to be acquired in the near future.[137]
Gun-based air-defense and medium-ranged air-defense systems
Plans are also being laid out for the procurement of a gun-based air-defense systems, and medium-ranged air-defense systems, wherein both are part of the Horizon 3 phase of the AFP Modernization Program. Under the medium-ranged air-defense system acquisition program, the main contenders for the program are the SPYDER MR, the IRIS-T SLM, and the NASAMS.[186]
Communications equipment
The DND awarded an US$18 million contract to Harris Corporation to supply Harris Falcon III tactical vehicular radios and intercom systems for the Philippine Army's Mechanized Infantry Division (formerly the Light Armor Division). The contract required RF-7800V Combat Net Radios and RF-7800I Intercom Systems to be installed of the MID's armored and support vehicles.[49][187]
The Philippine Army also acquired additional Falcon-series tactical radios from Harris under a FMS deal with the US government, with a requirement for 62 100W base radios, 520 20W man-pack radios, and 1,376 5W hand-held radios under the AFPMP RA 7898 already awarded in 2014.[188] Another set of orders was slated under RAFPMP RA 10349, with an additional 60 units 50W HF vehicular radios and 1,446 5W hand-held radios.[188]
