“when they had to hunt the robbers in tekong, they did bother to bring out the BA for their troops going in… which did complain somewhat because they never trained in it ? “

Did SAF have any specific exercise that cater to hunting of robbers !!! No ? well there is alway the 1st time. For crying out loud ! The soldiers are deploy there to guard access point here and there , and some buildings ! The one that go try to flush them out was the Police swat team, gurhkas and the more elite forces – those have train with BA before. It is not like the ordinary soldiers are ask to put up BA and ask to charge or storm the building with it on.

Look like you are right, we damn need to train for things – that why they let Selamat out – so we get more training in hunting people with BA on !!!

Eh storywolf, you in here still haven't learnt anything ?

it seem like the person who does not learn is you !!!

Don't understand you, we getting body armour now - you complain that should have got it sooner !!! If we got BA sooner - eariler verison one - now you be complaining it is now outdated, why we cannot get the better type in market now !!! Hello you complaining like Ah Ma !!!!

Buy earlier - you complain now outdated, buy later you also complain should have got earlier !!! You complain for the joy of complaining

Did any war broke out that we have to fight with BA ? Did any soldier died shot - that could have been saved by a BA ? - Answer is no, this clearly proven the decision to buy BA now is the correct and wise choice, to hold back till better BA is available, and when the regions is more unstable which is now which we have more likely to use it. Getting the equipment - when we best and most need it is the better investment and not getting it just because - it is out in the market, there will alway be newer and better stuff all the time, you just cannot be blindly chasing after it

Lionnoisy is totally out of point !!!

But T-rex – I do not agree with you.
So what singapore light tank project failed -there are lots of failed military projects – are you going to be like lionnoisy – keep pinpoint on the few failed one ?

SAR-80 and SAR-88 that came to nothing ? I disagree,the main objective is to a super cheap rifle that matches M-16 in performance which can be produced in huge qualities when needed. It was good and cheap – found buyers oversea, just because there is no war -which did not see it produce in huge qualities – does not mean it failed. It achieved its purpose.

upgrade to Bionix 2 not long after Bionix 1 was introduced? Sometime a produce design start a few years before production run. Thus 20mm was indeed the choice of most at that time – till folks see the 30mm in action in war. Unfair arguement of expecting everything can be forseen.

I disagree with you on body armour. May have been slower then other modern army, but why rush into it when we do not have war on. Also we our weather is too hot, and our modern soldiers run with PT wear also can drop dead …(they not real grunt like you) rush into implement the old generation of body armour, no need to fight all drop dead !! Think the timing was good, that we waited, at least better and lighter body armour.

SAR-21 – it is a good rifle, the standard version come out with its 1.5 scope which was good. Like you say – better sights have came up … and SAR-21 did come up with version that incorporate them, too bad it is available for special units and foreign countries only. So the complain is not about the rifle itself but it is not available to the common soldiers. This is a fair point.

Yes they are advance Cougar - beside equipments, the most different is - the rotor blades they have 5 rotor blades instead of 4 - much better in performance

honourable man ? not to me - I remember when the time, he was selling his party paper walking around the market. I politely decline - hey it cost decent money which i do not have for spare that time .... he give me such a nasty look - which i will alway remember !!! - so i do question hourable ? haha not to me

Big Sissy Sour Ass Loser !!! With a President like that, no wonder they lost big !!!

On the point of circus ? Well it is there was lion, elephants and of course – the red clowns – Ferrari !!!

Sound funny when the Chief clown is complaining – when all the jokes is done by them.

Cannot overtake ? How did the current 1st place guy get from 15th to 1st ? of course he overtook …. there has been lots of overtaking action , just because Ferrari does not have the balls to over take, that does not mean other will not !!! maybe the horse logo need to change to a bull one , then they have some balls !!!

It is the total change of life style, which create soft generation. Last time kids rough it out in the hot sun, when ever they can .... during school break time or back at home. Nowaday aircon here and aircon there........ !! So go army exercise in sun .... all melt !!!

Lionnoisy – “wow.This writer makes joke on SG military ability.He just thinks that the quantity makes any nation a military superpower.He forgets quality.”

                        In the first place this whole thing was a joke, the goal is unrealistical and prize money is too small to attract any serious working model. Local schools and universities - just money, the tech or knowledge, or the parts to do anything close.
                        

Remember this is not USA – which you can get a small radar or night vision off the commerical shelf, a lot of the items are controlled items, while in USA – they are off the shelf which anyone can buy.

                        One must remember this is not for a remote control robot,but a fully autonomous vehicle - that will expect to do everything without any commands. For something like that - it will take years to develop the coding, and equipment intergration.
                        

                        If we get laughed at - we deserve it - as it was too unrealise goal competition and goal !

Chinese women hardly date Indian men (although singaporean interracial demographics show otherwise) . Its their choice, to each their own I say. Whatever floats your boat.

Yeah Indian girls wont go crazy over me. But its not easy to please everybody.

I've been around caucasian women. They pay more attention to me. They actually DO look at me in a sexual way. They display signs of attraction. I like that. I feel easy around them.

If the fish in your tank arent easy to catch then you must outsource. White men get treated better by oriental girls, likewise I get treated better than my white girlfriend. I enjoy her compliments. I love the way she looks, she likes the way I look.

From your description !!! this it the picture of you and your girls !!!

Those are just attachment to the rifle - not really much of a improvement !!! They are attachment that can be attach to other rifles - even SAR-21 !

Can someone advice on the basic M4 issued to the ordinary soldiers of US - i don't think they come with any scope even.

This is how the new Aust AWD look like. It does incorporate stealth !

Lionnoisy did not do this homework again, just take old photo of the previous verision , and run around shooting off blindly !!!

Hi Sg Ty also,

Tx for responses.

How many surface combatants and sub does oz can depoly at any one time?

Where and when Oz need to deploy to overseas?

The size of the fleet,even after 3 AWD delivered,

hardly can cover the back side!!

BTW,do u need escorts for AWD?

If so,u have less platforms to deploy to other theater.

 

 

If it ever come to war - the whole Oz fleet, troops ships and merchant fleet will be deploy !! Also most likely they will be part of a combine commonwealth fleet or Nato Fleet.

Even in exercise -they been doing that with US and other navies including singapore navy.

3 AWD delivered - cannot cover backside ? If position them at properly on the outer defence parameter of the fleet - they form a nice triangle defence, which is effective enough to cover everything. Even with 1 ADW in the fleet - your anti-air, anti-ship and anti-submarine will be increased !

The ADWs is able to handle air, surface and underwater threat, they do not need escorts.

Well it's not surprising lionnoisy will think this way since all his posts indicate that he thinks that navy ships operate alone hundreds of miles away from any other support and can only enter war "anyday, anyhow".

In his opinion, probably nothing short of a Nimitiz class-sized ship that is configured for just about every possible task and that sails at 500 knots with a warp drive that allows it to turn up "anyday, anyhow, anywhere" and is designed to fight wars alone will sastify him.

I think the only thing "any" about his posts is that they are anyhow made, and in which anything goes.

Even if the Aust AWD is to operate miles away from any other ships alone. With its better radar, it will detect enemy 1st can can choose to evade or even if it cannot evade - its equipments and weapons - are able to take on any threats alone. Also when you get to a certain size - no matter how you wish apply stealth - you just too a little too huge to be effective, so may not be worth that little effort to just reduce it by a little percentage, but stick to proven design which give advantage in other areas.

Lionnoisy - AIR WARFARE DESTROYER main role is to escort the fleet ... with the whole fleet - the need of steath is less. Sometime stealth is not everything !!! The russia SU-35 and Euro-fighter are not stealth, yet they are giving F-22 and f-35 a run for their money.

Think that is because in the end - they found the missing live round - thus = not lost - but misplaced. If a real live round is missing - it is out of the CO power - the investigation is done my the MP- special investigation team. And Mindef will map out the punishment.

if australians do not have problem with it – why should a lion have problem with it !!!

If the person want to steal it, he can hide it behind some trees and then retreive it after the strip search !!! There is just no way to prevent if the person is determine enough. The only deterrent is heavy punishment if he is caught !!! - send this sucker to jail for a few years ...after that no more idiots will even dare to try it.
