PH Navy ship sinks even before it could be used as target in Balikatan missile exercise
Manila Bulletin
|May 6, 2025
The decommissioned BRP Miguel Malvar (PS-19), which was supposed to be sunk as part of a Balikatan missile exercise, submerged while being positioned off the coast of San Antonio, Zambales on Monday morning, May 5.
No gunfire was heard nor missile was fired, and yet the BRP Miguel Malvar descended to the bottom of the sea floor as it took on water while being towed to a designated location approximately 30 nautical miles west of San Antonio town at around 7:20 a.m.
"No personnel were injured," said Lt. Col. John Paul Salgado, chief of Balikatan Exercises' combined joint information bureau.
