BRP Nicolas Mahusay (PC-119) was a Tomas Batilo-class fast attack craft of the Philippine Navy. It was transferred by the South Korean government in 1998.[1] It was initially acquired as a spare parts hulk, but the need for additional ships led to its commissioning with the Philippine Navy on 2 July 1998.[2][3]

It was upgraded under the Patrol Killer Medium-Republic of the Philippines (PKM-RP) Program of 2006 by Propmech Corp., the program includes the reinforcement of its hull, replacing the engines, radar, navigation and communication systems, and changing the weapons fit-out to include crane and space for rigid hull inflatable boat. The upgrades were completed in 2008.[3][2]

The ship received the Philippine Navy Plaque of Merit on 2009, being adjudged as the patrol gunboat of the year.[4]

In April 2016, in line with the Philippine Navy Standard Operating Procedures #08, the boat was reclassified as the patrol craft BRP Nicolas Mahusay (PC-116), but was later renumbered to PC-119 as the Philippine Navy believed that the ship was unlucky after encountering several mishaps in its final years.

Technical Details

The ship was originally powered by 2 MTU MD 16V 538 TB90 diesel engines with total output of 6,000 horsepower.[5] From 2007, Propmech was contracted to replace the old engines with new Caterpillar 3516C diesel engines with a total output of 6,300 horsepower.[2]

The ship was equipped with a Koden Electronics MDC 1500 Series navigation and surface search radar, which replaced the previously installed radar during the refurbishing works in 2007.[2]
