WATCH: Video from Philippine Air Force showing the Presidential flight being escorted by a FA-50 fighter jet as part of standard operating procedure in clearing and securing the airspace for arrival and departure of the President and other visiting heads of state.
President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. went to New York last September 18, 2022 to participate in the 77th United Nations General Assembly.
According to PAF, two FA-50 fighter jets escorted the Presidential flight in the country's eastern front starting over Polillo Island all the way up to 200 nautical files which lasted for a few minutes, and continued with the regular maritime patrol as part of securing the country from unauthorized intrusion within the Philippine Air Defense Identification Zone (PADIZ).
