pacific rim and sg's defense strategy

[eatshitndie]

it's true that saf expensive assets are not meant for war against her potential regional troublemakers that are her immediate neighbors. all the ne propaganda that you learnt from a mr. kwa while in the saf back in the 80s was bogus. sg's recent posture to purchase extremely expensive and advanced systems from the u.s. is part of the american industrial military complex and pentagon collusion to create a profitable and perpetual market to sustain the u.s. military industry and the need for more r&d and product development. otherwise, the industry will go the way of sunset industries as evidenced by decay in the old school industries on the east coast and heartlands. there's much more....

All those buying of expensive war toys done only because the buyers and friends and cronies of buyers benefit.
Not the defense of Stinkapore.

We all know if a war break out, Singaporeans will go and get arms so as to shoot bullets into the heads of PAP maggots cockroaches and paper generals with the help of allies from other countries that Singaporeans
will be able to regain their own country and destroy those PAP bastards all out to rape and rob Singaporeans

Other countries know that too.
And the fucking PAP regime know that as well.

And the fucking running dogs and collaborators know their fate will be at end of piano wires as the case for all collaborators

This MH370 saga gave me the feeling our neighbours are actually smarter. They bought cheaper russian planes that are not heavily bugged or opened to the possibility of being remote control via satcom.

besides sustaining the arms industry, pentagon thinkers have the prevailing strategy of relying on allies and proxies to shoulder the burden of global defense (and offense if necessary). as the de facto successor of the british empire after ww2, strategic choke points, listening posts, shipping lanes and buffer zones have to be manned and maintained for the continuance of western prosperity based on the anglo-dutch-american model of ocean ownership and dominance. that model goes way back to the days of the spice trade when dutch guild warships dominate the seas followed by the british east india company operating as the navy of her royal highness. portuguese, spanish and french fleets were not part of the anglo-saxon kinship and thus must be curtailed and decimated. competition was a bitch. there was even violent competition between dutch and english in their quest for nutmeg monopoly among the banda chain of islands. (i highly encourage you to pay a visit. it's lovely and idyllic there.)

it was no mystery to the germans pre-ww1 that the british navy had secured almost all the important choke points and ports of call in sea and ocean routes on the planet: gibraltar, suez, ceylon (sri lanka), rangoon, malacca, singapore, cape town, jamaica, hawaii, falklands, present day diego garcia (still a british protectorate), hong kong, and entire coasts of canada, australia and nz. it was a formidable empire of global and oceanic proportions.

america after ww2 became the new guardian of these routes and was handed over the keys except for a few locations not worth the investment, for example, cape town, rangoon, malacca, gibraltar, ceylon, falklands. singapore, however, is still a strategic choke and hub for both regional and inter-oceanic (indo-pacific) commerce and trade. oil happened to be more lucrative and important than spice, and the same anglo-dutch-american dominance over shipping and commerce (and banking as a result of the wealth) was a natural fit for the oil trade. bp, shell, exxon, chevron, conocophillips are household names today for a reason.

how did sg become a bitch of the u.s.? the saga continues....

sorry papsmeared, i jump the proverbial gun on you.

 

[eatshitndie]

it is noteworthy in the mh370 saga that a former usaf general came forward to mention about the saf air force capability and prowess. voluntarily without being prodded to. he was saying that sg was so quiet in the mh saga but might have more info than the immediate neighbors north and south of her. what was more revealing was that he was simply reiterating his mindset and that of the pentagon even though he's retired. he said that if there was anything happening in the south china sea (and the region), the u.s. and allies would tap the resources of the saf air force as the system was based on the u.s., and thus offered a seamless and easy transition and framework for u.s. assets to work with (and possibly command and control if necessary). same with the aussies in the eastern indian ocean and south western pacific. more to cum....

 

[eatshitndie]

basically, from what the former usaf general alluded to, the saf air force is a proxy or regional extension of the usaf. sg buy the hardware, provide the human resources, maintain the bases and assets, and when shit hits the fan, the u.s. cum inside her and own her, especially her very flat runway assets and everything that lands and take off from the flat chested nature of the typical spg. :p

 

[eatshitndie]

the saf is becumming a prostituting proxy of the u.s. pentagon. but events in ossetia (remember the invasion of western georgia a.k.a. ossetia by russia when bush was caught with his hands in the cookie jars of iraq and afghanistan?) and crimea have thrown all the proxy prostitution of u.s. arse-licking cuntries in disarray. sg is obviously having second and third thoughts. is the pimp going to show up when another bully shows up to f*ck for free? who are the new bruising bullies, besides russia. russia obviously are not historically and strategically interested in the region south of vietnam.

Not becoming. Already is a prostitute proxy of USA (and Israel and NATO countries). Has been for a long time.

the purchase of f-16's was understandable as they proved to be effective air superiority multi-role fighters in israeli air scuffles with neighbors. the purchase of older model f-15's cemented sg as a call girl on a shopping spree, but not as a leg-spreading mistress-prostitute of the u.s. yet. the upcumming purchase of more state-of-the-art f-35's will cement sg as the trillionaire consort of u.s. ang mo tua kee. but take a step back, the same leg-spreading and purse-opening consort is also flirting with prc cunts, sometimes embracing and caressing in lesbian passion. sg is bisexual, cavorting with whoever has the means and power to feed her lust for attention and recognition. :*:

the u.s. is still under the notion that she's the peacekeeper of the world after ww2 with a massive carrier fleet. 10 super carrier battle groups in all to be exact, based on the nimitz class, with 2 being built based on the newer gerald ford class. the uss enterprise, first nuclear powered carrier, is being retired, and a new gerald ford class carrier will be named after it. there will be a total of 11 gf class carriers. carrier battle groups are all over warm oceans since ww2, and together with subs and supplementary and auxiliary ships, they require bases to replenish, repair, discharge waste, and provide r&r to sailors. when former colonies such as the philippines provided bases for the u.s., sg was treated simply as a convenient port of call plus a champion of american industry and capitalism in the region. but when subic pubic and clark fark were taken back by the flips, sg as a relatively expensive port of call offered to sell her arse for a song, in order to keep u.s. navel interest at bay. it was a no brainer for the u.s. safe, secure, strategic location, modern, cheap, bridge the indian ocean and pacific rim like a perineum, has a gov committed to buy into the u.s. military eco-system. sg is now more valuable, thanks to her success as a real estate jewel of the east coupled with a hardcore (incestuous) financial and banking industry, fuel refinery and processing hub, shipping and rig production center, and some semblance of tech, pharm and biomedical r&d. a combo of all including forays into casinos and mega hotels offering conventions, trade shows and exclusive clubbing makes sg an important ally of the u.s. and in a way, sg is materialistically mirroring americanism in her progressiveness.

It's too allow America to win in any conflict with China N. Korea. China most likely.

because the UK, our former colonial master, isn't any more.

that's too simplistic (or shallow) of an interpretation. the u.s. are using the vast oceans as buffer zones for her national security interests. pearl harbor was an excuse to project her power like the wings of a eagle spanning the pacific and atlantic, with her feathers touching the far east on the pacific rim and europe and middle east on the atlantic side. to continue to support this doctrine of forward bases at the ends of both her wings, she still maintains bases in south korea, japan, okinawa, thailand, sg, australia. in taiwan, she keeps another prostituting proxy. do you know how much it costs to maintain a base in these cuntries? and who are embedded in and reliant on the corrupted eco-system of bases and military presence? there's federal funding from taxpayers, and money is squandered on personnel, contractors and their cronies milking the system. for example, air force families in south korea are given perks and luxuries you'll never see in any township back home in the u.s. and everything is paid for by taxpayers. kids of force personnel enjoy baseball and softball like the minor leagues, and they are flown all over far east bases via commercial airliners on a weekly basis to compete in the far east league dedicated for american armed forces personnel only. can you imagine flying entire teams of elementary graders and coaches and accompanying parents and teachers from sasebo, japan to bangkok, thailand for a weekend of little league baseball? and off to hawaii the next weekend to compete with a team from the pacific little league? do you think the armed forces personnel in these bases wish to give up the good life?

it is true. LKY and now LHL has been pandering to the American's because of the UK's downfall. In any case, LKY hated the Brits and quickly forged relations with the Yankes when he rose to power. UK then and now is in a decline and SG under PAP is happy, teaching students in NE that UK was lousy--could not defend Singapore, withdrew from east, not a nice friend. In contrast, we are made to like all things American: McDonalds, TV/Movie, clothes etc....

 

[Agoraphobic]

Because Singapore is a dependable ally of the US. Besides buying US made weapons, Singapore is also a well-stocked logistics base for US forces in the region, trained technicians familiar with US hardware.

Don't know about present day situation, but back in the nineties, Mobil's refinery in Pioneer Road was the largest Mobil refinery outside USA. It has since expanded. With this kind of investment, US isn't going to easily allow any terrorist to sabotage operations there. Singapore is well "protected" by US military if the need arises. It works both ways.

Cheers!

Many RSAF pilots are trained in the USA, and with the various exercises, there appears to be "inter-operability" and seamless transition, handing and taking over, as well as sending RSAF and USAF pilots to fly in the same sortie.

right. training is part of the package, and it also includes training of technicians who have to maintain the aircraft including choppers, e.g. the apache. the saf basically bought into the latest american air arsenal, from aircrafts to weapon systems to munitions to hangar and ground systems in support of aircrafts and pilots. the aircraft and pilot are just the tip of the procurement pyramid. what is interesting these days is the u.s. transition to drones, unmanned aircraft, and or remote piloted machines. both wars in iraq and afghanistan have left a sour taste with military families losing their sons, daughters, fathers and mothers. over 24,000 are rehabilitating with life altering wounds and injuries, with many losing limbs. besides airborne drones, the pentagon is engaging r&d labs to develop robots and droids. with the navy launching drones off carriers, the last elite branch of the u.s. armed forces (naval pilots) has relented on their intransigence to keep all naval aircraft manned. tide is changing, and in a matter of a decade, my conjecture is that much of the usaf will rely on drones and unmanned aircraft for offensive operations. interceptor and defensive ops will still have manned aircraft.

the saf had toyed with rpv (from israel) back in the 80s. question is why isn't the saf thinking big about drones and having their civilian technology counterparts do their own r&d and come up with drone and droid products for own use and sell in the lucrative international arms market?

ST does produce UAV with no buyers, not even SAF uses it. Another project called Lalee but been on the papers for years with no tangible product.

As far as arms sales goes, Sinkieland suffer from credibility gap in international arms market. Countries with lots of money will prefer to buy from US and western countries. Buyers with very limited budget will buy from China. So where does Sinkieland stands?
