Our F-5 Tigers are the best upgraded in the world![]()

we're getting rid of them soon anyways ...
the JSF will turn out to be the most expensive piece of junk around, you just watch ...Originally posted by sbst275:
Yeah.. If JSF dun come in fast, more F-15 may be purchased... PLAB and Changi have chances of basing them
They have selected F-15... Instead of the Rafale and TyphoonsOriginally posted by Fatum:the JSF will turn out to be the most expensive piece of junk around, you just watch ...
maybe we'll eventually get the typhoons ...![]()
that's just a stop gap .... that's why we're not buying a bunch of them at once ... you watch .... we'll get something else for the air-superiority role .... the strike eagles and the vipers will be used as bomb trucks ...Originally posted by sbst275:They have selected F-15...

heck ... this is turing into military nuts ..![]()
don't have to worry too much about that for the time being .... we are trained and equipped by another tiny nation in the middle east .... who have the best fighter pilots in the world, period ...Originally posted by laurence82:I dont know
When i learnt that F-15 SG is similar to the F-15E, and the conversion of our F-16s to even include the conformal fuel tank for long range attack, and that we are participating in the JSF program, are we focusing too much on attack and not much on air superiority?
>.
How about a squadron of Supermarine Spitfires and Hawker Hurricanes for the RSAF in the air superiority role? I can definitely see certain tactical advantages: upon encountering them in a dogfight, the enemy with their high-tech supersonic jet fighters wouldn't know how to handle something that old and slow. They'd be high-speed-stalling and going into irrecoverable flat spins while attempting to outmaneuver the slower and nimbler prop-driven fighters.Originally posted by sbst275:YeahBut esp the neighbour *ahem* will get uncomfy
But the Typhoon maybe in the next 5 years
But RSAF has come a long way from the Hunters...
Strategy will have to changeOriginally posted by Fatum:don't have to worry too much about that for the time being .... we are trained and equipped by another tiny nation in the middle east .... who have the best fighter pilots in the world, period ...
but that may change when we have to face swarms of flankers from that jaggernaut far to our north ...![]()
From PLAB or TAB, in 10 sec aft takeoff you are off from SGOriginally posted by Meia Gisborn:How about a squadron of Supermarine Spitfires and Hawker Hurricanes for the RSAF in the air superiority role?

The dogfight would be over without a single shot being fired by the RSAF fighters!![]()
