Philippine Marine Corps has finally received their new MFR56 5.56x45mm NATO Light Machine Gun, manufactured by System Defence of Turkey.

160 units were ordered as part of the PMC's 5.56mm Squad Automatic Weapon Acquisition Project, which was tendered for public bidding back in 2021 and awarded to System Defense in 2022.

The photos show that the PMC has started training with the new LMG/SAW which means delivery may have already started a few months ago.
