A number of Philippine Navy officers are receiving submarine training in France, with DCI Group. The formation started in 2019 in Brest. Its goal is to assist the Philippines as the country is looking to set up its own submarine force from scratch.
The Philippine Navy is aiming at creating a submarine force. They are considering proposal from both France’s Naval Group and South Korea’s DSME. The submarine training provided by DCI Group is generic and platform agnostic but bring French operational expertise because DCI instructors are experts retired from the French Navy.
In an interview in January 2022, the Commander-in-Chief of the Philippine Navy Vice Admiral Adeluis S. Bordado stated, In 2015, we started forming the so-called submarine group of the Philippine Navy. We are actually starting to train our personnel, even though we don’t have the submarine. Because we have learned that in order to have a good submarine force we should start with our personnel. So, slowly we’re training our personnel to have the competency to handle or to operate submarines in the near future.
