With the increasing urbanisation, it becomes clear that the
battlefields of the future will not be fields and forests, but also
the concrete jungle.
9th Division/Infantry Formation leads the way in Our Armys
experimentation in urban combat capabilities. The Urban Operations
Demonstration on 25 February at Kranji Camp included a briefing by
Chief Infantry Officer, COL Winston Toh to Chief of Army, MG
Desmond Kuek and senior commanders on the new technologies and
techniques for Fighting in Built-Up Areas. An assault by the 1st
Urban Ops Capable Infantry Company, 3rd Singapore Infantry Regiment
and static displays that provided more in-depth information about
the new weapons being introduced to the SAF such as Pack-bots
(Armed Remote-Controlled Robots) and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles were
also showcased.
