How a tiny city-state became a military powerhouse with the best air force and navy in Southeast Asi

[Viet]

PLA "3 empty" 三光 policy in Northern Vietnam, doing things that Japan has done in China.

Well the Chinese can look themselves in the mirror.

Vietnam defence on the north relies on stopping enemies at the bunkers, fortifications and high mountains. Because it is very difficult if not impossible when enemy armies break thru, because there is no natural barrier to the way to Hanoi. As seen when the armies of the Han, the Mongol, the Ming, the Manchu stormed the capital when border defense collapsed.

No matter how tough you are you can't Dodge bullets or rat hole busting bombs. Yup the rat holes Vietcong used to squirm around in are useless against modern weapons

Modern weapons are expensive. That's the reason America used chemical weapons. Fu*k America!

 

[Reashot Xigwin]

Nonsense. we are a major food exporter. Foods are cheap and plentiful. Viet people are generally not fat. Have you ever seen a fat Viet girl?


Fighting against the most powerful military power as America we need to hide in jungle, in rat hole...then launching attacks in ambush. Do you see we hide when fighting against France, China, Cambodia, Thailand and other armies?

That chick Marie Trang in the new star wars movie are fat. So?...

Anyway it's not just about nutritional factor, but readiness, competence, lack of modern equipments & thinking that plagued the VPA.

The SAF has none of those problems & regarded as one of the most effective armed forces in the region. Hell we even use the SAF as a basis for our modernization programs.

That should tell you why the SAF are better than the VPA & to some extent the even PLA.

Ok but she lives in America. Most exile Vietnamese are tall and have more weight. Thanks to junk foods. Vietnamese should eat more junk foods. Ha ha.

man, SG army has never fought a single battle in her entire history. Much like Indo army. Fancy weapons, nice sun glass, well dressed but for parades only. How SG airforce can survive and take off once hit by land attack missiles from Vietnam bases in the first minutes! Has SG any missile defense system in place?

A lot of SG millitary assets are outside the country like Australia & SG air defense are the best in the region so, no. Even if the VPA did managed to hit an airbase the damage will be minimal.

Also they can still find the sub & kill your entire navy while they're at it.

You see when a sub fired their cruise missile they basically just give away their position to the enemy.

Have no evidences to suppose the SAF is better than PLA or VPA in a war. Sing is only little kid with expensive gun. Even what you said about "as one of the most effective armed forces in the region". What a ridiculous thing. In SEA, Indonesia and Vietnam are worth to say about military, Myanmar and Thai are second layer can be put to compare. People only say about Sing about money, no more. Do you think Sing same as Israel?

In a modern warfare, vn stands no chance against Singapore's 100 F15G/F16C/Ds with AESA radar together with their AEW&C planes. Simple as that...
And please stop putting PLAAF (with 1000+ 4th and 5th gen fighter planes) together with VPA... Or if you really want to boast VPA. put it together with USAF next time...

Not our new fighter jets, but one strike, entire vn navy will be under the sea bottom..
And...

 

[Mista]

Well duh. Which military which spends tens of billions annually have no air defence system?

The Israeli media speculated that Singapore has the Iron Dome, though officials have denied it. Maybe due to sensitivities with our Muslim neighbors.

War is different with showing pic, if the comparing the number of airplane can say for who are win? so I can say you have no chance against US. It is stupid when a large number of Chinese in here said, they can, they can with US force if your things you said rightly

We are not claiming we can win a war with US when we attack the US territory at this moment, neither can they, after all, both are nuclear countries equipped with H-bombs and ICBMs...and both countries can destroy the world multiple times: https://defence.pk/pdf/threads/chinas-294-megatons-of-thermonuclear-deterrence.107079/
But vpa... Lol... this is too much....
You jungle men will never know what is happening outside the jungle...
So stick with SG and VN, spare our PLA, otherwise, the food I just had for dinner will all throw up...

Who win depends on how close to the land territory, the battle is fought.

USA will loss if the engagement is near Taiwan. Similar China will loss if near Hawaii.

At this moment I will not say who is gonna win, because there is nearly zero chance for these major nuclear nations to confront each other directly nowadays, they are more likely to find their proxies to fight each other. But within ten years or so when our 6 nuclear powered ACs are completed, the Pacific ocean will be divided half half...

Iron dome is overkill for your potential attackers because Indonesia and Malaysia don’t possess any missile that can attack Singapore. Spyder is good enough. We have too. Just a part of VN multilayered air defense.

One main reason of acquiring weapons from Israel is Singapore want to develop military industries, which Israel is always willing to transfer know how compared to all others. Israel transferred technology to Singapore for this Iron Dome project.

You see when a sub fired their cruise missile they basically just give away their position to the enemy.

When one of our subs fires a long range cruise missile, let’s say 300km away, or in extreme case 2,500km away, how can a SG plane detect the sub in the vast ocean? Because the sub will dive deep into the sea once the missile is fired.
