PICTURE OF THE FUTURE
THE PHILIPPINE NAVY BRIEFER
The Maritime Operating Environment
Predominantly maritime in character, the
Philippine archipelago is composed of 7,107
islands with a coastline covering some 11,339
nautical miles and a land area of 299,764 sq.
kilometers.
However, this fragmentary geographical feature
makes our maritime nation vulnerable to
different maritime threats in varying intensity
and forms, to wit:
Maritime law violations – illegal fishing,
foreign vessels’ intrusion, seaborne
smuggling of goods, and armed robbery
at sea
Transnational maritime threats – piracy,
drug smuggling, and human trafficking
Territorial defense – overlapping
maritime claims in the West Philippine
Sea and South China Sea
Philippine Navy Command and Organization
Mandate
Article II, Section 3 of the Philippine Constitution states that: “The Armed Forces of the
Philippines is the protector of the people and the State. Its goal is to secure the sovereignty of the state
and the integrity of the National Territory.” The Philippine Navy is the major service of the AFP that
provides the naval component force for our country’s defense and protection.
Mission
“To organize, train, equip, maintain, develop and deploy forces for prompt and sustained
naval and maritime operations to accomplish the AFP mission”
Roles
The Philippine Navy carries out three distinct and significant roles: military role,
diplomatic role and constabulary role.

The Navy, in its long history of honorable service to our maritime nation, has faithfully fulfilled
its military role. By the force of law, military role denotes the specific purpose for which the
Naval Service was established. It is the traditional idea of the use or deterrent use of force
involving the employment of combatant forces for direct actions and other force-related activities.
It serves as the baseline capability where the effective initiation of other roles emanates
Territorial Defense- Mandated to perform naval defense, the PN together with the other
armed services, shall prevent and deter those that directly pose armed threats to the
Philippines and defeat any armed aggression or invasion directed against its territory.
Force Level C2, Training and Support- The Philippine Navy performs command and
control, training and support that serve as pillars for enhancing existing PN capabilities to
accomplish its all mission areas.
The Philippine Navy conducts its diplomatic role through combined operations at sea or training
and exercises with allied navies to accomplish bilateral or regional objectives, and a wide range
of military and non-military diplomatic activities. These are designed to promote regional peace
and stability and enhance maritime security cooperation:
International Humanitarian
Assistance and Peacekeeping
Operations- The PN supports
foreign programs conducted to
relieve or reduce the results of
natural and man-made disasters or
other endemic conditions such as
human pain, disease, hunger, or
privation that might present a
serious threat to life or result in
great damage to or loss of
property. In adherence to international agreement, the PN personnel are deployed
overseas to participate in peace building efforts to strengthen and rebuild civil
infrastructure and institutions in order to avoid relapse into conflict.

International Defense and
Security Engagement- The PN conducts
planning and execution of combined
operations at sea, in the form of
coordinated patrol or combined naval
exercises with ally navies to accomplish
bilateral or regional objectives.
Under its constabulary role, the Philippine Navy conducts various disaster relief and rescue
operations, take part in the maintenance of internal peace and security in the country and
contribute to the inclusive national development:
Internal Security Operations- The PN conduct operations aimed at suppressing
insurgency, terrorism and other serious threats to national security. It includes operations
and assistance provided by the AFP to maintain, restore or establish a climate of order
within which duly constituted local government units can function effectively.
Disaster Response- Disaster response refers to the conduct of disaster relief and rescue
operations in the different calamity and disaster- stricken areas of the country.
Support to National Development- The PN supports and contributes to national
development through the conduct of activities that help establish a physically and
psychologically secure environment conducive to socio-economic growth.
Maritime Security- The PN contributes to the protection, conservation, preservation and
enhancement of the country’s maritime assets, maritime practices, territorial integrity, and
coastal peace and order through the effective use of naval platforms.

Organization
Over a hundred years of its existence, the Philippine Navy's organizational structure has
undergone changes to fulfill its various roles and functions. Today, the Philippine Navy is
organized into two Type Commands; seven Operational Commands; five Support Commands;
and eight Support Units as illustrated below:
Figure 1. Philippine Navy Organization
The Philippine Navy, as a force provider, has two type commands namely the Philippine Fleet
and the Philippine Marine Corps, which work together in order for the Navy to execute its
mission.
The Philippine Fleet’s (PF) mission is to organize, train,
equip and maintain fleet forces for naval operations in
support of the Philippine Navy’s mission. To effectively
pursue this mission, the PF is organized into five type
forces and groups, a training center, and a support force.
The Philippine Marine Corps provides combined arms
units for amphibious operations and other operations in
support of the navy’s mission. The Philippine Marine
Corps is organized into three marine brigades and one
Combat Service Support Brigade. Under these brigades
are twelve rifle battalions. Supporting the corps is the
combat service support brigade with six support
battalions.
The thirteen Support Commands and Units provides the mission essential requirements for the
conduct of successful fleet-marine operations. The five Support Commands mission is to sustain
the forces of operational units. On the other hand, the eight Support Units provide support
logistics, personnel, maintenance, finance and health services.

The seven operational commands’ mission is to conduct sustained naval and maritime operations
in their respective areas of responsibility in support of the campaign plans of the unified
commands through the fleet and marine forces deployed under their operational control. Notably,
the 7th Operational Command, the Fleet-Marine Ready Force, is designated as the national
maneuver force.
The Sail Plan: Charting the Future Philippine Navy
Guided by its organizational development strategy—the PN Strategic Sail Plan 2020, the
Philippine Navy is on its way towards becoming a strong and credible Navy that our maritime
nation can be proud.
The PN Strategic Sail Plan 2020, aptly called the Sail Plan, is the Navy’s transformation roadmap—
meaning, a plan or program for the future. It outlines the long-term plans of the PN from the time it
has began implementation (2008) until the year 2020. It contains specific and concrete actions and
plans that are meant to improve the organization by introducing better ways of doing things,
improving current practices, aligning existing systems, and fixing the inefficiencies in the Philippine
Navy.
I. Charter Statement
Embodied in the Sail Plan is the PN Charter Statement that is composed of the vision,
mission and core values of the Navy. The Charter Statement provides a grounded framework from
which every plan or program that the organization will undertake shall be aligned. It also serves as a
reminder to every Sailor, Marine and Civilian Personnel of their professional objectives and an
inspiration for them to better serve the country, the Navy, and its stakeholders.
The PN Vision articulates what the Navy aims to realize and achieve within a definite time
horizon. It is a long-term goal that describes the aspiration of the Navy in so far as the course it would
take in the future is concerned.
“By 2020, we shall be a strong and credible Navy that our maritime nation can be proud of.”
The Mission states the Navy’s mandate and its specific contribution to the achievement of the
Higher Headquarters’ mission. It gives the Navy a clear direction in continuing its efforts to further
develop its capabilities as a major service of the Armed Forces of the Philippines.
“To organize, train, equip, maintain, develop & deploy forces for prompt & sustained naval &
maritime operations to accomplish the AFP mission”
The Core Values serves as the foundation of the efforts to further build the Navy
organization. It outlines the principles, standards and ideals that every Navy personnel must observe
in performing their functions. It serves as a guide in molding and sustaining the character and lifestyle
that will uplift the individual performance of every Navy personnel and ensure the organization’s
overall mission accomplishment.

II. PN Strategy Map
The PN Strategy Map tells the story of how the Navy intends to reach its desired state by
2020. It serves as the basis for all capability-development initiatives of the Navy. Anchored on the PN
Charter Statement, the PN Strategy Map links the three (3) strategic themes, five (5) perspectives
and 12 strategic objectives. The Strategic Objectives are grouped into five perspectives: Personnel,
Organization, Resources, Capability, and Accomplishment.
The strategy map is read from bottom up, starting with the Personnel perspective,
highlighting the fact that the sailors, marines and civilian personnel of the Navy are the foundation of
its success and effectiveness. This perspective pertains to the investments that must be made to
upgrade the motivation, values, knowledge and skills of every PN personnel. The Organization
perspective, on the other hand, pertains to the improvement in the systems and processes of the Navy.
The Resources perspective corresponds to the effective, efficient and transparent management and
utilization of the Navy’s financial resources while the Capability perspective contains the
development of its platforms, assets, equipment, and facilities. Finally, the Accomplishment
Perspective contains the Navy’s desired outcomes: optimal level of operational readiness, a secured
maritime environment and satisfied stakeholders.
III. PN Governance Scorecard
The Philippine Navy Governance Scorecard, commonly known as the FOIC, PN Balanced
Scorecard (BSC), was crafted to manage the implementation of the PN Strategy Map. It translates the
twelve strategic objectives into defined performance measures, targets and initiatives. The Scorecard
also serves as the primary guide of the Navy in monitoring the progress and attainment of the desired
strategic objectives of the Sail Plan. It gives a clearer view of the specific projects, programs and
activities that the Navy has to undertake in order to address the current challenges it is facing and to
take advantage of its strengths and opportunities.
