“In nine months time, I think the radar system in Mount Salakot will be up and running,” Briguez also noted that time.
MaxDefense said that “by now it is expected that both radars should already have been installed, although there could be integration works still ongoing, and its highly possible that both radars are not yet operational. It may take some more time, maybe a few more months, before the radar systems are ready and integrated into the Philippine Air Defense Control Center.”
