Utility Vehicle Acquisitions (2017-2022) of the PNP Special Action Force

Philippine Defense Resource April 19, 2020 0

The Philippine National Police Special Action Force (PNP-SAF) continuously keeps its logistics and transport vehicle fleet in good shape as the unit increases in size and relevance in its role in security of the country against internal threats. They require a continuous program to keep its transport fleet sufficient enough to support the unit's day-to-day operations.

Due to the numerous but similar acquisitions of the PNP-SAF, we decided to just have single blog covering all utility vehicle acquisitions of the unit from years 2016 to 2022.
