If u use ur 100 km rockets against Singapore, then Singapore's F-15 will first take out these rockets and then all ur major cities.

Indonesia can flatten whole of tiny Singapore with rockets.

Indonesia can flatten whole of tiny Singapore with rockets.

In return get whole of Indonesia flattened by US?

Since the foundation of Singapore, it had a strong military culture so I wouldn't be surprised why they invest in defence industry because it's a deeply integrated part of their country. It doesn't have any animosity against either Malaysia or Indonesia. Strong military is just purely for the show and it can afford to fund the military because of high GDP.

That was a long time ago and compulsory military service was introduced as a result of that. Even in Singapore's weakest times, Malaysia didn't dare to invade.

Yeah, in present scenario, Singapore got no threat and moreover ASEAN platform had helped all the countries to be united.

Moreover, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand and UK have signed a defence pack so we are totally secured
