Russian PT-91 MBT & MIG-29.

 

[evq]

Who cares about infiltration when u can just blow it up into millions of unrecognisable parts by letting loose everything on it?

This is the kind of statement that shows how naive some people can get.
If it is THAT simple, why did the US lost so many planes in the recent fights?
You should get your facts straight about warfare.

Maybe the Gov is giving people a wrong sense of security with their Army recruitment campaigns.
I think the best defence we can have is still, to depend on aids from other nations.

I dun need a lecture in warfare. Thnx. Save it for urself. :bsmilie:

For one who doesn't know how to draw the line proper between a word in jest & a serious word, I guess that's perhaps the most naive of all.

And the greatest naivity of all is to sit there and wait for aid from other countries.
If u can't even fight for the land which u stand, u are not fit to be part of it or to even own it.

No hard feelings
But really, lets hope our soldiers never have a need to go to war.

Have u guys read this book "Defending the Lion City" by Tim Huxley?

I can tell u that there would be no one to help us.

"Who is ur friend today might be your enemy tomorrow.
Who is ur enemy today might be your best ally tomorrow.
There is no permanet allies or foes. Only permanent interests."

They would as long as they have something to gain, be it reputation, material or other type of gains.

Wow.. you're very good in this leh. :thumbsup:

No hard feelings too.

But den again running a country is not like running ya own life where u can expect ppl to help u when u're down and stuff like dat. It pisses me to see ppl (especially with the recent criminal hanging) who expect a country to be run like a person living a normal life in-&-out.

The talks of peace and war are very real. We can only wish & hope for no wars. But I believe that war will come. Soon or later.

yeap.. the author really can dig up many things.. his info should be out-dated by now

 

[hwchoy]

Care to elaborate?

no need to elaborate, just see his nick will do :bsmilie: :bsmilie: :bsmilie:

I had always thought that the longbow radar (the dome on top of the main rotors) is a classified weapon that's under some kind of US Weapons Export Regulation thing? :dunno:

Hmm... Din know that ours come with the longbow radar.

yah all our apaches comes with that dome, what.

 

[evq]

Wow.. you're very good in this leh. :thumbsup:

I know nothing lah.
Visit the forum that I posted. U will learn a lot from there. They're the hardcore.

 

[hwchoy]

I am surprised that our neighbour in the immediate north of Singapore, did not make noise about "sensitivity" or "projection of military powers" like when we had our submarine and E2C....

BTW, I tot they have the F18s. Never see them fly anyway leh.. or perhaps I did not tune to their national day parade.

they got demonstrate their Mig29 during F1 show leh. show off the tight G-turns haha. unfortunately cannot see very well at the F1 stadium.

 

[evq]

yeap.. the author really can dig up many things.. his info should be out-dated by now

Agreed, I was like 'Wow' when I read it. How the hell he got so much info....

 

[hwchoy]

if its guarded by heavy AA and SAMs..then how?Cruise missles?

haiz that is what SEAD is for mah.

 

[jsbn]

yah all our apaches comes with that dome, what.

Yup, juz checked. My bad.

All Apaches we bought come with the longbow radar which allows the apache to track & engage many enemy targets simultaneously.
