We'll break down the numbers and capabilities of the air, naval, and ground forces during this period, including:

The Philippine Air Force's fleet of F-5 Freedom Fighters, Bell UH-1 Huey helicopters, and transport aircraft.

The Philippine Navy’s Rizal-class frigates, Miguel Malvar-class patrol corvettes, and Landing Ship Tanks (LSTs).

The Philippine Army’s armored vehicles like the M113 APCs and Scorpion light tanks, as well as artillery systems.
