i'd like to see the Philippine Navy version!!!

Andres Bonifacio class-

-A helicopter landing pad(aft) was added in 1979
-5-inch guns reduced to one (only the front A turret remained)
-also carried a two twin Mk. 1 Bofors 40mm L/60 anti-aircraft guns and two single Bofors 40mm L/60 anti-aircraft guns, four twin 20mm Oerlikon cannons, four M2 Browning .50-caliber (12.7-mm) general-purpose machine guns, and two 81mm mortars
-AN/SPS-23 radar replaced with AN/SPS-53, while retaining both the AN/SPS-29 radar and Mk.26 Mod.1 FCR
-and lastly, the navy made plans in installing new air search radar and BGM-84 Harpoon SSM launchers but this plan did not materialize due to worsening political and economical problems

I was planning to do the Philippine version, altough I couln't find a drawing of the Barnegat class to start from, until I stumbled upon this. :D I may do the ships as they have actually appeared in service, and the never-built upgrade.

I'm still working on this project (even though I've got pretty much no time for it lately due to real life stuff) and the Philippine version is a part of it, so I would appreciate if you leave it to me.

Okay, you will be doing the Philippine version. I did not know the Philippine version is part of your project.
