The Philippine Coast Guard clarified that the ship is a law enforcement vessel and is designed to conduct environmental and humanitarian missions, as well as maritime security operations and patrol missions.[1]

The ship was designed with a bulletproof navigation bridge, and is equipped with fire monitors, night vision capability, a work boat, and radio direction finder capability.[2]

The ship is equipped with communications and radio monitoring equipment from Rohde & Schwarz, specifically the M3SR Series 4400 and Series 4100 software-defined communication radios, and DDF205 radio monitoring equipment. These equipment enhances the ship's reconnaissance, pursuit and communications capabilities.[3]

[edit]

The ship's keel was officially laid down on February 6, 2016, and the ship was launched on May 12, 2016.[4] It underwent sea trials starting in June 2016 until before its delivery.

The ship left Yokohama, Japan on August 11, 2016, and arrived in the Port of Manila on August 18, 2016, where it was formally handed over to the Philippine Coast Guard to prepare for final fitting works, crew training, and eventual commissioning.[1]

Notable operational deployments

[edit]
BRP Tubbataha during its arrival for MARPOLEX 2017

BRP Tubbataha, together with BRP Davao del Norte, were deployed to the Scarborough (Panatag) Shoal on November 3, 2016, and was meant to conduct inspections, make its presence felt on the area, and "test the waters" following the reported incident-free expedition of Filipino fishermen in the contested sea feature. The ships were instructed not to conduct provocative action as China Coast Guard (CCG) ships are still in the shoal. The two ships were backed-up by a larger PCG vessel, the BRP Pampanga.[6]

BRP Tubbataha, together with BRP Pampanga, BRP Nueva Vizcaya and TB Habagat were part of the task force sent to Bali, Indonesia to participate in the biennial maritime pollution exercise MARPOLEX Bali 2017 from May 15 to 18, 2017, together with other ships of the Philippine Coast Guard, as well as its counterparts from Indonesia and Japan.[7]
