Juario Marayag as the new Commander of the Naval Sea Systems Command (NSSC), presided over by Flag Officer In Command, Rear Adm. Jose Ma. Ambrosio Ezpeleta at the Navy Headquarters on November 27.
“I have full confidence that the Fleet will remain a reliable guardian of our nation’s waters under your command,” said Rear Adm. Ezpeleta as he expressed confidence in Rear Adm. Orbe, who has commanded various Philippine Navy vessels and previously served as Commander of the Naval Education, Training, and Doctrine Command, Naval Forces Southern Luzon, and the Offshore Combat Force.
"I trust that your expertise and leadership will guide NSSC in sustaining innovation and technical excellence," added Rear Adm. Ezpeleta, addressing Commo.

The Philippine Fleet remains the core of the Navy’s operational strength, safeguarding sovereignty and vital sea lanes, while the NSSC ensures the Navy’s ships and systems are reliable and mission-ready through engineering excellence and innovation.
