is this RSS Spares?Originally posted by IAF:
It is a offical photo released by Mindef.Originally posted by Atobe:Do not wish to be a wet blanket - they are certainly nice shot, but did the pic passed security ?
Quite a gamble if this is not authorised to be taken and posted - considering the tight security in entering the base with 3G mobile phones and other hand held devices with built-in cameras.

Just asking, can you get to work in a submarine for NS?

Officially, 4 were bought and converted to operational subs. A fifth was bought as spares. RSN should have possession of ALL the sjoormen subs, all 5 vessels.Originally posted by tankee1981:I have seen a photo of a ship with 3 Challenger submarines,transporting them back to Singapore. I think its in the Chinese ZaoBao just last week. The article mentioned that out of the 3,1 is a 'spare' sub! I am wondering how many subs did we ordered from the Swedes? If i am not wrong the official number should be 4 right? 2 is ASingapore already and 2 more just arrived right? Please confirm if i am right or not.![]()
Diver insertion/retrieval?Originally posted by tankee1981:Could the 'spare' submarine have some additional or special purposes? My guess is that they will use the spare one for dedicated training purposes.![]()
Let out sgboy2004 in Malaysia swamps when 21st division lands on the beach, as 'pre emptive strike' against Malaysia commandos. When they swim in swamps towards their objectives (us), sgboy with his buaya skills will lay an ambush and eat them one by one.Originally posted by sgFish:Diver insertion/retrieval?![]()
Thats much too cruel.

if i'm not wrong, the 4 subs are used for training purposes. The fifth one, whom SgFish has named RSS Spares, is used for for 'cannibalization' as the swedes don't make parts for the sjoormen anymoreOriginally posted by tankee1981:Could the 'spare' submarine have some additional or special purposes?
