The Naval Forces Northern Luzon, through Naval Task Force 11, deployed BRP NESTOR REINOSO (PC380) to respond to the emergency alert issued by UDOSARANG 1, a South Korean Passenger Vessel.
The vessel was navigating the waters of Burgos, Ilocos Norte, at about 9 a.m. on February 05, 2025, when it experienced a mechanical malfunction. The emergency alert was monitored by the Maritime Situation Awareness Center – North (MSAC-N) and Naval Monitoring Detachment Pasuquin (NMD Pasuquin).
This derangement restricted its ability to maneuver, prompting this Command to take immediate action. After establishing contact with the vessel, PC380 escorted UDOSARANG 1 to Sual, Pangasinan, where it could safely fix its mechanical malfunction.
The nine (9) Filipino crew members of the said vessel were safe and encountered no other problems.
