Due to the numerous minor projects involved in the AFP Modernization Program's Capability Upgrade Program of the Philippine Navy and of all other branch services, MaxDefense Philippines decided to combine them to resources pages based on their classification according to Department of National Defense (DND) official documents.
In this case, we focus on Minor "Force Protection" Projects under the AFPMP Capability Upgrade Program of the Philippine Navy, which are projects classified under Force Protection Projects that are less than Php100 million in value.

"FORCE PROTECTION" PROJECTS OF THE PHILIPPINE NAVY UNDER THE AFPMP CAPABILITY UPGRADE PROGRAM:

3. Diving Suit Re-Breathers
Overview:
The project was meant to supply the Philippine Navy with 40 sets of diving suit re-breather systems, which are used by divers when operating underwater.
Due to lack of detail, it is unknown which unit are the recepient of these re-breathers, but chances are it was acquired for the Naval Special Operations Group (NAVSOG), which was the old name of the Philippine Navy's Naval Special Operations Command (NAVSOCOM).
The project was awarded to Ophir Defence Systems Corporation based in Australia, with the products completely delivered on 26 August 2004.
