This is due to the fact that the USG disallows IITs compliant with DND / PA tech specs as said spec is outside of what is allowed for export from the USA to a country like the Philippines.<br /><br />Hence, Harris will export IITs to Aselsan, Ankara which do NOT meet AFP specs thereby negating any reported savings since the AFP will not receive the performance parameters it is paying for.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838050795464426329.post-39678717960845048682015-12-12T02:58:58.888+11:002015-12-12T02:58:58.888+11:00Then by all means, send your local techie to bid, ...Then by all means, send your local techie to bid, I have been competing in several international robotics competitions for the Philippines, and I will be leaving on Monday to represent our nation in South Korea, and I have met people from Data Science, DOST, and professors from our top universities and we all source parts from S.Korea or Japan for robots, so if your local techie wanted to supply this, he'd have to source hundreds of parts, unless you want cheap fakes, making it impossible for it to be 200M pesosAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838050795464426329.post-15033237632177511502015-07-15T17:42:18.841+10:002015-07-15T17:42:18.841+10:00Thanks for sharing your side on Mini N/SEAS.
