Information: - The Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) are composed of the Philippine Army, Philippine Navy (including Philippine Marine Corps) and Philippine Air Force. In 2014, a senior AFP officer reported it had 90,000 members, of which 30,000 were in the Army and the rest in the Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force. This figure matches closely with the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) 2011 figure of 40,000 (Army), 10,000 (Navy and Marine Corps), and 10,000 (Air Force). In 2012, the AFP Chief of Staff said that there had been no increase in the number of soldiers over a long period, and that the military aimed to hire 30,000 troops in three years. In 2013 the IISS listed reserves as 40,000 Army, 30,000 Navy and Marine Corps, and 25,000 Air Force. In 2014, manpower figures of 125,000 active and 131,000 reserve were reported by the IISS.

It consists of about 7,641 islands that are categorized broadly under three main geographical divisions from north to south: Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. The capital city of the Philippines is Manila and the most populous city is Quezon City, both part of Metro Manila. Bounded by the South China Sea on the west, the Philippine Sea on the east and the Celebes Sea on the southwest, the Philippines shares maritime borders with Taiwan to the north, Vietnam to the west, Palau to the east and Malaysia and Indonesia to the south. - The Marine Scout Sniper Rifle or MSSR is a select fire sniper rifle developed from the Colt M16A1 rifle by the Philippine Marine Corps Scout Snipers due to the lack of a dedicated sniper rifle which is used in the Armed Forces of the Philippines . The MSSR was developed due to the need of a sniper rifle system that could effectively use 5.56 45mm NATO ammunition ( most other sniper rifles use the larger 7.62 51mm NATO cartridge ) . This was done mainly for cost - saving and availability reasons since the Armed Forces of the Philippines are actively engaged in counter-insurgency and internal security operations , especially against the Moro Islamic Liberation Front ( MILF ) and the Abu Sayyaf Group . The shorter effective range of the 5.56 mm cartridge compared to the 7.62 mm was less of a factor due to the shorter ranges encountered in jungle combat , where the rifle is primarily used . Its performance during subsequent combat operations proved the effectiveness of the weapon system , and it was adopted as the primary range sniper rifle ( for ranges of up to 600 m ) of the Philippine Marine Scout Snipers . The deployment of the MSSR also allowed the Philippine Marine Corps to retire its M1903 Springfield , M1C Garand and M14 rifles from active service . - The Philippine Navy (PN; Filipino: "Hukbong Dagat ng Pilipinas"; Spanish: "Armada Filipina") is the naval warfare service branch of the Armed Forces of the Philippines and one of the three uniformed services of the Philippines.
