The Jose Rizal Class guided missile destroyers were developed to replace the Andres Bonifacio Class (Philippine variant of Charles F. Adams Class destroyer). These ships are used as escorts for the aircraft carrier BRP Luzon and (after the BMD upgrade) as ballistic missile defense platforms. The Jose Rizal Class features an advanced antiair warfare built around the Thales APAR AESA multifunction radar and SMART-L volume search radar. The ships also have the capability to fire P-ASROC antisubmarine missiles (carrying the MU90 Impact torpedo) and Archangel supersonic land attack/antiship missiles. In February 2012 the BRP Jose Rizal was fitted with the EWC variant of the SMART-L radar, allowing detection of ballistic missiles at a range of 2000 km. The capability to fire Standard Missile 3 was added, giving BRP Jose Rizal the capability of engaging ballistic missiles. Upgrades to the CIC were also made, with new Thales MOC Mk4 consoles to replace the previously used Thales MOC Mk3. In August 2014 BRP Jose Rizal successfully engaged a ballistic missile target at the Pacific Missile Range Facility with a SM-3. The rest of the class will eventually receive the upgrade.
