Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering (KSOE), the parent company of Hyundai Heavy Industries, has signed the contract today 27 June 2022 for the Offshore Patrol Vessel Acquisition Project.

This was signed in DND's office in Quezon City in the presence of Defense Sec. Delfin Lorenzana and officials from the Philippine Navy and KSOE Vice Chairman Ga Sam-hyeon.

This confirms the selection of HHI through KSOE, using a derivative of the HDP-1500 Neo OPV design.

The CGI below shows slight differences on the previous CGI of the ship, which is now far longer, sports a 76mm gun instead of 40/57mm gun, has 2D radar only, and other PN-specific features.
