The unit is Marine  Ready Unit of the Philippine Marine Ready Force of which 7Marine Battalion is part with attached  CSS elements an off shoot of Fleet-Marine Operational Doctrine. Wihout the CSS elements as Armor, Artillery, Anti-Air, Recon, EOD, Engineers, Motor Transport, In-shore boats(as the LARC-V seen) and SS units it is a mere infantry battalion.

I remember having a talked with a PMC officer before and he told me the Marines were offered the British Stalwart. But disaster struck the demo. They forgot to plugged properly all the watertights and it sunk at the Manila Bay! Laughing
