Is SA stand Singapore Artillery?

Ponders SG

being a arty unit doesn't mean it has to have big guns.

there are so many air force squadrons that dun have aeroplanes.

if you know what i am getting at..... yah.. think that direction.

Some units are mortars too…

Master -_- SG

The reason is that they don't have big guns is because they hid it Laughing

maxsee SG

mortars no more....i am from 21sa....the last of the mortar unit....after that convert to guns....and then howitzer...... Confused

I don't think it's any secret here; there's MINDEF-sanctioned articles/books, both printed & online, publicly hinting at what 24SA do. Just don't reveal the actual equipment or SOP's, that's all.

To the o/p: Artillery is probably the most technical-skilled of all the combat formations; you just don't fire a 155mm round over 20 clicks & expect it to hit the target dead-on. There's a fair amount of mathematical & metrological data required for calculation, & 24SA helps provide that. It's not a "sexy" job, but I've seen them "take-action" & they kena takan like the rest of us gunners ...

all i can say is that life in 24SA is just like any other artillery unit…

cutebug SG

4 words -> "need to know basis"

pertaining to technical & tactical related information, stuffs like what they do, what they have, especially in the area of counter bat fire, pls do take into consideration the 4 words "need to know basis".

They also operate landrover, unimog, mark 1 eye-ball.

Ah lah mak, if the ISD haven't knock on your door yet hurry burn all the pono magazines and pour tinner on your XXX CD collection, bcos the people who never sleep want to test their new sleep deprevation methods on some stoopid sod like you.

Don't wish for anything too hard, you may getit.

Besides TPQ 36 and 37, Unimog, there is a new addition called ARTHUR (Artillery Hunting Radar). It was featured in an article in the Straits Times a few days before Army Open House and was also on display there.
