BRP General Emilio Aguinaldo was the lead ship of the General Emilio Aguinaldo-class patrol vessel of the Philippine Navy. This ship, along with her only sistership BRP General Antonio Luna (PG-141), were one of the last that were made in the Cavite Naval Ship Yard. The original plan called for 6 General Emilio Aguinaldo class vessels to be built, but this number was not reached.
The ship was decommissioned sometime in mid-2016 as its hull was found to be in poor shape and deteriorated faster than expected.
